Pat Buchanan -- Economic Nationalist

[Telly Savalas]

I don't get the love at this site for paleoconservatives.

The only departure they have from traditional laissez-faire voodoo economics is that they want to build a 80 ft. high brick wall around the perimeter of the U.S. and pretend the rest of the world doesn't exist. Then the Magical Invisible Hand will make everybody's wages go up fifteen cents an hour. Drop the quasi-racist rhetoric, and what you have is just another version of Reagan's trickle-down economics.

All you gotta do is look at the rest of their agenda:

*National healthcare? Nope. Working people don't deserve that.

*Living wage laws? Nope. That would fuck with the Invisible Hand.

*Unions? Quit yer fuckin' gripin', or we'll drain the moat at the border and let Mexicans take your jobs.

*Public works projects? Education? Now how will we fit the government in a bathtub to drown it if we invest in our infrastructure?

Face it. These guys are just neocons who are to lazy to apply for a passport.
