Spending Freeze? Not in this Economy

The rethuglican mantra in congress these days has become just "freeze spending" even though all evidence points to there being way too much supply and very little demand because of severe credit limitations and fear of job loss. Rachel Maddow talks to the very lovely Ana Marie Cox about how the current minority party is channeling Herbert Hoover and his policies which they seem to have forgotten led to the Great Depression almost a century ago.

Liberals always have a reason to take more of our money so they can spend it as they see fit. If the economy is bad, they tell us they must spend more money in order to stimulate the economy. When the economy is good, they tell us we have a moral obligation to let them spend more of our money.
