Dick Morris:
The draconian tax increases on the segment of the population that pays most of the taxes, generates most of the jobs, employs most of the workforce, and accounts for much of the consumer spending will chill whatever small warmth the stimulus package can generate. How can Obama pretend that he wants to encourage confidence among bankers and consumers while he regulates them, taxes them, and vilifies them? His tax increases make it clear that he is less interested in solving the recession and the financial crisis than he is in vindicating his political agenda of redistribution of wealth and income. The price of this policy will be lost growth and lost jobs.

NBC pulled this SNL skit from its website in October, and had it removed from Youtube. Too much truth.

We wrote very little that was critical of the incoming administration as it assembled its team and raised the prospect that President Obama might try to govern from the center. In little more than a month, Obama’s counterproductive economic policy choices have clarified matters considerably. Decisions will likely come from the left, and pretty far left for that matter; talk about consensus building appears to be just for the cameras. We’ll just have to see what happens to this latest expensive boondoggle. (Oops — it seems that we may already know.)
