On Barack’s Web site he is quoted:

“I believe that America’s free market has been the engine of America’s great progress. It’s created a prosperity that is the envy of the world.” Capatilist believe that individuals should own capital and have the rights on how to use capital, how to in invest capital.

Wow….I really like that statement. I totally agree. Should I consider voting for Barack. HELL NO

He sounds great and then lays out a litany of ways he wants to regulate the free market.

From “fair” trade, to job training, to energy policy, to support for unions….he lists policies that are the exact opposite of his opening line about a free market.

Don’t believe me…read it, but really read it. Don’t just read the big text at the top (that is what they want you to read). Think of the implications of his policies. Does it match his non-specific speeches?

What irks me is that he knows America wants a free market system….so he praises it…but he will fight tooth and nail to destroy it.
