“The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”

Steve Wynn lays the smack-down on Michigan Gov. Granholm

Steve Wynn gets interviewed by Chris Wallace on Fox News about jobs...



This guy gets it! Government never lifts people up, it only holds them back from fulfilling their potential. Government doesn't create anything of value, it sucks value from the creations of others. Government doesn't raise the standard of living of citizens, it perpetuates their dependency and tricks them into believing they shouldn't strive for more. The primary cost of all this government meddling is jobs, jobs, jobs!

Steve Wynn highlighted one of the primary, and most destructive failings of liberalism as practiced by President Obama and Gov. Granholm which is, that government can micromanage economies and create jobs by allocating wealth where it wants it. Without genuine, market demand for those jobs, they disappear the second the money runs out.

Only the free market, unfettered by government meddling and punitive taxation, can create lasting, worthwhile employment. The free market will drive our recovery, not stupid, government redistributionists.

And that stupid government redistribution in the form of stimulus dollars enabled our idiot governor (we call her Granwhore, not Granholm) to plug holes in the state budget (the same holes she insisted would never open up when they raised our state income tax rate here 2 years ago) instead of forcing Lansing to REFORM. Now in 2 more years (when Granwhore is gone - thank GOD for term limits!) and the stimulus money is gone, we can deal with the crap all over again, probably with some other half-baked Dummycrap governor...
