Goldman Sachs, MFGlobal have politically connected to FED. Madoff only have connection to SEC. What happen to private business without government connection?

[Rockmanisoff]

It's kind of embarrassing that the hero of the far economic right can't even cite Milton Friedman correctly. This was a mismatch

[69Facial]

No, I prefer Ron Paul out of all of them. I don't support Obama, dipshit, I love how libertarians assume that anyone who's not conservative or right-winged, is a Obama-loving liberal. I am a pro-gun, pro-freedom, socialist/anarchist.

Are you forgot Bernanke 's16 trillion dollar bail out? Remember, Krugman suggest only 7 Trillion of stimulus money. Maybe you have valid argument. 16 Trillion is not enough. How bout 1 Zillion dollar?

What if I told you that government employment has dropped under Obama? I have a graph but I can't post it to this, if you give me your e-mail I can show you Private vs Public employment growth during the first 4 years of Obama and Bush's first terms.

Obama can't do keynesian economics because every bill he wants to pass gets vetoed. (See American Jobs Act)

The welfare state does more damage than good. It creates a trap for people to be stuck in poverty. Good thing we have conservatives who have added work requirements to welfare but it still needs to be fixed.

If the Democrats could have it there way they would just allow people to receive welfare without having to work. They always say Republicans don't care about the poor but Republicans are the one's who rather see this people get a normal life and job not live on the govt.

[jmm3113]

Your unintelligent! Keynesian economics does have to do with the welfare state. The government gives people money to try and boost the economy.

Obama is doing Keynesian economics right now and he expanded the welfare state.

[pretorious700]

Keynesian nonsense facilitates ridiculous government overspending for entitlements like welfare....so you're dead wrong, it has very much to do with a "welfare state"

and marginalizing rational examination by politicizing the discussion is just stupid.

[chiyen chendra]

One example of this explanation. Do you know that the young people live in nation with bad social program, tend to have bigger savings?

[chiyen chendra]

Social security are invented by Keynes! My main objection with Keynes and welfare statist, that they are replace personal responsibility with social responsibility. And don't forget other type of Keynesian militarism, using war as massive stimulus
