The ghost of F.A. Hayek is rattling his chains right about now. Fiscal stimulus is sometimes needed in the broken capitalist model to “fix” the business cycle (which is intentionally engineered into the market to create the “movement” that market players need to make their princely sums). But when the stimulus takes the form of agenda-driven payoffs to political cronies, one can expect the “hope” to be a bit delayed. Contrary to the hypnotic mantra chanted at pre-election Obama rallies, the real answer is “NO WE CAN’T!” Especially when “we” consists of nothing more than NWO political hacks, death-loving plutocrats, and recycled 60’s radicals. At 500K per month and barely decelerating 1st time unemployment claims. You can expect total unemployment to hit 11+ percent in the 2-3 quarter of 2010. Meanwhile, you should be interested to see whether the “jobless recovery” poppycock continues from the corporate-government media.
