President Obama knows the history of recessions and how Americans get out of them. He knows, for example, that if he gave back to the American family in just pure cash handouts what he is instead planning on taxing them (with interest) in the days to come, that the number would loom between $25,000-$65,000 per family, for every family in America.
But pretending to be doing something about the problem is only half the strategy for Obama. He truly intends to see socialized health care, and European styled labor agreements become reality in America. He knows the consequences of doing such things, he's seen all the projections and what the outcomes would be, but he's doing it anyway.
But there is one tiny problem standing in his way to getting there--"We The People!"
He knows that in order to be forced down paths that we don't wish to go, the only way he gets us to change our mind is to create abject suffering and misery.
Then in Venezuelan styled cries for help, he can promise to take America to a better place economically, a place of greater care, a place of true serenity. A place like Venezuela.
Rachel Maddow told Jay Leno this week that she found it "creepy" that someone would want the President's policies to fail.
I find it creepy that Rachel Maddow is so ignorant that she refuses to think analytically concerning her President's plans for this nation. After all she is one of us--"We The People."
President Obama and his team do not intend to solve this crisis as quickly as they possibly could--like he promised on the campaign trail. Instead, his intention is to let us bleed until the whimper we are expressing now finally builds into an all out, gut wrenching, cry of anguish. He does not care what must be done to arrive at that reality, only that we arrive there.
Many think the Obama administration is incompetent, and surely they've proved this, from the vetting of their appointments to handling the limited foreign relationships they've entertained thus far.
But on the domestic agenda they are as sly as foxes, and our future is the henhouse.
And in refusing to allow a "good crisis" to go to waste, the strategic move to remake Amerika anew has begun.
