AVI: Maybe The Schools Are Okay
They are OK, but I think they would be better if they got out from under the thumb of government and unions and let entrepreneurial schools flourish. Educational monopoly is not a good thing.
Kos: Perry likely wins. Says Surber:
Having watched the Left preach all my life, to say they lack zealotry is to ignore the truth. In summary, liberals realize Obama looks hopeless right now and are greeting this news with a great sense of ennui. They should cheer up. In 2013, they get to be the screaming yahoos and unlike the Tea Party, the Left will be embraced by ABC News, CBS News, NBC News, MSNBC and CNN, as dissent becomes patriotic again.

Chait:
Liberal critics of Obama, just like conservative critics of Republican presidents, generally want both maximal partisan conflict and maximal legislative achievement. In the real world, those two things are often at odds. Hence the allure of magical thinking.

Gary Becker: The Great Recession and Government Failure - When comparing the performance of markets to government, markets look pretty darn good. A quote:
The misdiagnosis of widespread market failure led congressional leaders, after the 2008 election, to propose radical changes in financial institutions and, more generally, much wider regulation and government control of companies and consumer behavior. They proposed higher taxes on upper-income families and businesses, and extensive controls over executive pay, as they bashed "billionaire" businessmen with private planes and expensive lifestyles. These political leaders wanted to reformulate antitrust policies away from efficiency, slow the movement by the U.S. toward freer trade, add many additional regulations in the medical-care sector, levy big taxes on energy emissions, and cut opportunities to drill for oil and other fossil fuels.

America is drowning in a river of rules:
As the President's approval numbers go down, the manic production of new regulations rises to a fever pitch in case the liberal last chance is afoot. According to the Competitive Enterprise Institute, 3,752 new rules were created last year and there are 4,225 new ones in some stage of preparedness.
These rules vary from the absurd, such as regulating that dolls of 3 different races must be represented in day care centers to far more substantive power grabs. The list of aggressively abusive implementations of a "social justice" agenda is very long and growing fast.
They think that the O will not be re-elected. Last chance to control every little detail of our lives and businesses.
