Greenspan Suck Up Session-Joint Econ Committee from Thursday
A lot of whining about how poorly educated our work force is on Greenspan's part, but he doesn't really consider tax cuts to the wealthy to be a problem nor does he see foreign creditors as a problem. This is all the fault of the working class. Legislators genuflecting and worst of all is Roberts (R-Tush kisser-don't remember where from), who assures Greenspan that the markets love him and are telling him that he's right about everything.

What kind of society sets about systematically dismantling its educational system and sells itself to the highest bidder? What sort of society lets itself be fed this kind of BS by these idiots in charge? Not one person there is willing to take on this bag of wind.

1. from Mr. "I Luv Ayn Rand"?
yeah, no surprise here. I wonder whether GS really believes the blather he spews, or whether he knows it's just more BS to try to fool the proles. Or, being a disciple of Ms. Rand, maybe he is a true believer. Wouldn't be the first deluded selfish idiot slapping a thin veneer of some sort of twisted ideology onto the steaming pile put forth for public consumption.

This country is on the fast track to Brazil-dom (= 2 classes w/ the Grand Canyon between), thanks to these class warriors.

2. A society that is dying, I'm afraid.

Greed kills.

By the way, have you noticed how much of a resemblance there is between a picture of Mr. Greenspan and a picture of a mummy?

3. Damn uneducated middle class.
What good is an education when your job is shipped overseas? Oh wait I know, go into medicine. One of the few sciences that actually pays here in the US. They can't out source doctors. Or can they???
