Re: [Pen-l] "Has Barack Obama's presidency already failed?"



Strong taxation plus regulation of a firm/industry at some level
relative to nationalization is a distinction without a difference, or
a difference in quantity rather than quality.

Obama did a speech on Lincoln last night in Springfield that was a
poem to the tradition of American collective action.  There was also a
throwaway line about how that tradition enabled the world to overcome
the threat of fascism -- without the usual bookend mention of
communism.

And by the way, the title of this thread is ridiculous.
