In the BAD ECONOMICS Department: Obama Admin Slaps Tariff on Chinese Tires
There's just nothing better than having to pay more for a product, and having less left over to spend on other products, or to save. Yeah, that government thing's really working out, isn't it?
Here's yet another story of conceit and arrogance interfering with what free people can purchase. Be seeing you!

Outburst by Republican Congressman During Obama Speech Is Correct, But Slammed for Being Indecorous
When President Obama claimed that his health care plan would not pay for the health care of "illegal" immigrants, South Carolina Representative Joe Wilson shouted "You lie!", and he was correct. Obama was attempting to hide the truth of what will happen. Now please keep in mind that those who believe in freedom, um, like us at the Conspiracy, do not want government involved in setting any kind of immigration policy or to tell employers whom they can hire. However, the fact is that unless current federal laws change, the Obama plan would be mounted on top of federal regs that ALREADY require emergency room doctors to take "illegal immigrants".
As Predicted, Cash for Clunkers Might Not Pay Back for Every Sale -- Um, Duh?
What a shock! Here are two pieces that go over some of the bureaucratic problems, not to mention the simple temporal-matheatic problems of acccounting for all the sales reports with the budget given. They creep, and the payment denials that will occur will only be the tip of the iceberg.

Dems Say They're Preparing FInall Assault on Health "Care"
The final push is coming. The aggressors are ready to do what they love most, mess with other people's lives. Remember, whatever they pass will have in it the ground work for a full government takeover in two to three years. The key for them will be to mandate "universal access" requirements on insurance companies. This will push up costs by at least 200% in two years. It has happened in every state that imposed such regulations (contrary to the Contract Clause of the US Constitution, by the way).

Obama School Speech Inspires More Controversy -- What a Surprise, It's School Based on Force and Theft!
Why is it that conservatives and liberals can't see that it's the very paradigm of tax-funded, mandated educations that causes these sorts of problems, where parents and taxpayers get frustrated because the school is going to do something they don't want? Why do they suddenly become angry and surprised when a GOVERNMENT school system readies to propagandize in favor of more GOVERNMENT?
Um. Duh?

Parents Angry Over Obama Propaganda-In-Schools Push
Nothing like the trifecta for gubment: tax parents to fund crappy schools whether they want to pay or not, force the kids to get an education the state approves, force the kids to listen to the head honcho of predation when he gives a speech and make them WRITE about it afterwards! Niiiiice!

As Discussed Earlier - Gold Appears to be Going Upward, Perhaps Thanks to the Potential Audit of the Fed.
If you have been involved in economics, you are probably aware of what has been happening to the price of gold. It will likely go up faster once the false "recovery" explodes in an inflationary spiral. That should come in about a year. But the audit of the Fed has been helping move gold prices higher. Could be an interesting time for the Dollar and for people who understand that the most dangerous financial policy any government can have is ANY financial policy. Leave the money supply to private exchange to handle, not the US gubment, and not a monopoly created by it!

Follow Up: Remember Our Conversation about Gubment Claims of "Cyber Threats" Eight Weeks Ago? Wellllllllll.......
As we predicted, the statists are interested in establishing "emergency" powers to take over the internet and private computer networks in the case of a "cyber terror threat". So far, the only one's we've heard about have not been backed up by any real evidence apart from government claims about the North Koreans. No private sector shut-downs, nothing. Strange, huh?
If we didn't have a government that provoked and funded outside interests in international conflicts, the chance of attacks on private cyber networks would be even smaller! Does anyone think that the biggest threat to cyber security comes not from foreigners, but from the US government?
How about that great prospect of the gubment getting your medical data? Can't wait.
