Somebody's raggin' on Obama's dog now? Have they no decency?


I recently looked at the new Michael Moore DVD,
it's not bad.  I think a lot more could be done with
pointing up the failed policies of the Republican Revolution.

It was a keynote in the last couple elections, but there
really is more there.  too bad the big O turned to Goldman
Sachs to run things.  Perhaps he will see the error of his
ways and ease those dudes out.  That dude who won the Nobel
in Economics would be a good choice...

looking up who the heck that was anyway, I tried
http://nobel.org/  which is a great page

...and redirected me to http://nobelprize.org/

where I found
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Stiglitz

whose views seem a lot more in line with the campaign
rhetoric than the guys from GS:

"the Greenwald-Stiglitz theorem posits market failure as the norm,
establishing "that government could potentially almost always improve
upon the market's resource allocation." And the Sappington-Stiglitz
theorem "establishes that an ideal government could do better running
an enterprise itself than it could through privatization"[20]"

why, Obama, why did you bring the fox in to guard the henhouse?
Is it under the principle of "keep your friends close, but your enemies closer?"




-- 
-- "the problem with the deployment of frictionless surfaces is
that they're not getting traction."
