Thread Name: BS: Tea Party = Flawed Economic Model
Subject: RE: BS: Tea Party = Flawed Economic Model
BTW, in case anyone didn't get the "Jenny burnin'" reference, "Jenny" is what the folks in "Yunks-town" called the Jeanette Blast Furnace and it was the heart-'n-soul of "yunks-town's" economy...

In reality, there are lots of small towns in Ohio that are dependent on the auto industry... The Repubs like to proclaim that the stimulus didn't create/save jobs... I'd bet the farm that there were one heck of alot of happy people when it was announced that the "mean 'ol gov-mint" was going to make a loan to GM and Chrysler... I mean, entire Ohioian town would have been wiped out like Youngstown was wiped out during Reagan's "asleep-at-the-wheel", laissez faire, "free trade" botcheded experiment...

Same thing is going on today... Obama devalues the dollar to make the US more competitive on the world market and the same flat-earthers scream for "free trade"...

Like Barney Frank asked a flat-earther, "On which planet do you reside???"

I mean, Tea Party Nation is so hypocritical it is beyond belief... They say that want or don't want "this-'er-that" but are ready to blame the "mean 'ol gov-mint" for everything that happens bad???
