"A few magic words"

Thomas Sowell has a way of making his point with few words:

"If you could spend vast amounts of other people's money just by saying a few magic words, wouldn't you be tempted to do it? Barack Obama has spent hundreds of billions of dollars of the taxpayers' money just by using the magic words "stimulus" and "jobs."


It doesn't matter politically that the stimulus is not actually stimulating and that the unemployment rate remains up near double-digit levels, despite all the spending and all the rhetoric about jobs. And of course nothing negative will ever matter to those who are part of the Obama cult, including many in the media."

Read the rest of his thoughts on the subject here.

Odd isn't it? There are so many voices of reason and clarity out there and yet I still feel like we're losing. And then I think wait just a few years ago we weren't listening to the Cassander's. We are now. I just hope it makes a difference a few years into the future.
