Anyone who reads mark Levins magnificent "Liberty and Tyranny" would come to an easy conclusion that his description of a Statist was written specifically for and about Obama. Other than that, the Marxist links come right through the rhetoric.Brucehttp://brucesplace.net/wordpressnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-685277461233610122010-04-12T03:01:25.754-04:002010-04-12T03:01:25.754-04:00They like to be in 135 countries and 700 bases.They like to be in 135 countries and 700 bases.nader paul kucinich gravel mckinneynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-55767127780120886422010-04-12T02:37:59.477-04:002010-04-12T02:37:59.477-04:00Janelle:

Although for my opinion on this guy I would defer to Jonah Goldberg who is somewhat of an expert on this and had referred to Obama as a corporatist in the past.<br /><br />Whether Obama's end goal is Socialism or not, I think that the structure of government he has set up, with Czars and committees (basically delegating out tasks to task forces) I could see how the corporatist definition would work.<br /><br />He wants those companies that are willing to jump into bed to parter up with government to make his agenda into reality. It may only last long enough for him to later nationalize them which would end up in some sort of government/business hybrid I would like to call "crap". It would suck, so regardless of what he is, lets worry more about getting the jerk out of office.spchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12006172249759977864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-44032381777331020552010-04-11T12:27:36.461-04:002010-04-11T12:27:36.461-04:00Totally agree Clifton regarding what I see as the ...Totally agree Clifton regarding what I see as the underlying thrust of ObamaCare. While touting the ability of us to keep the insurance we're happy with, the inability of insurance companies to manage and average their losses (cannot refuse coverage) will result in the bankruptcy of all private insurance companies. Individuals will not purchase insurance until they truly need it and private companies simply cannot keep a profit margin. Ultimately, the only option for insurance will be the government.<br /><br />We need reform in the health industry, but we should not "throw out the baby with the bathwater." Most of our industry is the best in the world...why scrap it all as ObamaCare will achieve?Rick Busbeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09129412433912253280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-27326264778812406212010-04-11T12:12:20.705-04:002010-04-11T12:12:20.705-04:00Teresa:
