RE: Somebody didn't get the memo in the EU
We are in a depression and the polis do not want to admit it. They actually believe they can spend/inflate the economy out of depression, Trillions here...Trillions there.... There is only way out and no one likes to hear it. It is TIME & PAIN. That is not something a sick patient wants to hear and it is not something the polis like to say or are willing to say. The polis schtick is they can help me,you,us and time and pain do not fit into that script. Trillions spent on non productive causes creates a bigger problem it does not solve problems.

Even if we stipulate that is true, what "failed ideas" was Mr Hannan espousing?

The first, longer speech was concerned with the debts/deficits of the UK, the relative merits of "free trade" and "protectionism" in promoting economic growth, and the general British trend of less private-sector employment and more public-sector employment. The second, shorter speech was about the increased spending/higher-budgets of the European Union, in contrast with the budget reductions being implemented or considered by the EU's individual member states.

The whole concepts of "Deregulation" and "Tax cuts for the rich" were literally unmentioned, and the concept of "tax cuts" in general, was mentioned once, in passing, at the end of the second speech.

Now I understand why you are a conservative. You completely missed the underlying meaning of his words. Like the Bible, you take the literal meaning of what is being said.

Robert, do you try to be this stupid? Does it come naturally? I'm interested. I think your type of willful ignorance should be studied so we can do something about preventing it in the future. You're Idiocracy in living color.
