Obama's Cartoonanomics, Part I. The Apprentice to FDR and LBJ's sorcerer
As the father of a young-ish boy, I have had some Disney videos permanently hardwired into my conciousness. Ironically, the more attention I pay to current events in Washington and Wall Street, the more applicable they become.
I noticed this little gem of spending tucked into the House "stimulus package"
Let's see :$88 million to build new schools in a city with 15 vacant schools and declining enrollment But this is what liberals do. They start programs that will never end, even after the initial problem they were meant to address has long since passed., or in the case of Milwaukee, simply assume from hundreds of miles away the city needs new schools even if the locals have no need for them. This classic cartoon explains what happens when liberals start spending money, and the Obama plan is just the latest and most monumental example. Yes, long after the well is filled the liberal "brooms" keep filling it with water. And in our case, the "water" is paid for with borrowed money from Beijing which future taxpayers will need to pay back with interest.
I'm not sure the "sorcerers" FDR and LBJ got really good results from conjuring up magic potions of new bureaucracies funded with deficit spending, but I think recent events suggest they might have been more skilled than the stumblebums running the federal government at the moment; who are really looking "Mickey Mouse".
