Obama Should Heed The Constitution Print E-mail
Written by James Berg

Our present economic system relies on a balance of free markets and government control to allocate resources. Obama is a statist. Statists believe in command economies where the state does most of the allocation. America's founders believed that the free market was the most efficient and fairest means of allocation. They therefore wrote a constitution limiting government control.

The historic record indicates that more government control leads to less commerce and eventually a lower standard of living. Many believe, statist regulatory policy has adversely affected the US economy. Obama is using unprecedented Keynesian stimulation to move the economy forward. Since Obama likes to use auto analogies, this is like putting the pedal to the metal (massive Keynesian stimulation) with the other foot on the brake (regulatory policy). Not much progress is being made and the car (economy) is being damaged. The people own the car and we need to tell the driver to read and use the manual (Constitution) The use of one pedal at a time will save gas and the brakes won't be worn out.

Bernanke and his "hanky panky" is driving the country into the ground. The Federal Reserve is the chief culprit behind the economic crisis. Its unchecked power to create endless amounts of money out of thin air brought us the boom and bust cycle and causes one financial bubble after another. Since the Fed’s creation in 1913 the dollar has lost more than 96% of its value, and by recklessly inflating the money supply the Fed continues to distort interest rates and intentionally erodes the value of the dollar.

Sustainable Development” is the UN Agenda 21 “Plan For The 21st Century. It is the UN plan to manage and control ALL human activity under Marxist/socialist principles. Re-distribution of wealth is a built in feature of it. In practicality, it is a direct economic attack on the United States.In fact, Maurice Strong was the Chair of the 1992 U.N. Earth Summit in Rio where Agenda 21 was introduced. He made the intent clear when he was quoted saying that it was their responsibility to bring about the collapse of the industrialized countries.It has been incorporated into federal policy with a series of Executive Orders starting with #12982 in 1994 and continuing this year with more creating the Rural and Ocean Council’s.
