re: #9 Bob Levin

You’re not observing, you’re inferring. You’ve misinterpreted, it’s that simple.

No, I’m not. You solely criticized Democrats. You singled them out.

What pre-determined conclusions are you talking about? There are private companies that are badly managed too.

So why are you using bureaucracy as synonymous with government, then?

I believe the extent of my influence over policy is when I walk into the voting booth. I’m not politically active, although I’m interested.

Again: Why aren’t you informed?

I do what I believe most people do, check out their internet news site. It’s part of the President’s job to make sure his message gets out to the people. If the headline writers will not cooperate, he’s got to solve that problem.

Wow, you think Obama is magic.

I’ll say it again. You used key words in your argument that are compatible with velocity. The economy is not good, velocity is down. If government is involved, then they, not me, they need to have a serious grasp of the relationship between economics and velocity. I will just go to the voting booth.

I’m sorry, this makes no sense. Unless you understand economics, how can you judge the job the government is doing? And why make an economic argument while claiming you’re ignorant?
