The crash of last year had no effect on their rhetoric, the finance industry is still their hero. They are of the opinion that if they continue to cast the role of gov’t as whipping boy, it will finally “learn it’s lesson” and things will return to normal.

To them the social safety net is so large it’s invisible, they cannot fathom real economic vulnerability.

I really have no faith in their ability to moderate their thinking or their ability to accept that problems are complex and require a competing balance of regulation and drive for profits.

It’s all very sobering, as Mr. Mauldin points out.

Yep, you’re right. Hey John, you mixed up the Blimpie sandwich chain with Wimpy the hamburger beggar. :)
Understandable mix up.

Good read as usual John. It’s really aggravating to realize where the shortsighted, immature and greedy majority has driven this country over the last couple of decades. We were sold down the river.

It hard to be a contrarian esp when the MSM are totally opposed to individual opinion. Just check the first video on Mark E Hoofer’s comment. Not that I approve of it’s style being as it no different to the control groups it rails against.
