After I first started reading this site I thought I was reading a Fox News website. If I wanted “Unfair and Unbalanced” views I’ll go to Fox. This site leans so far to the right I fear (hope) it will tip over.

Way to try to directly connect so many marginally unrelated things – “If I remember right, the market crash of 2008 happened as a result of Bush’s free market assault on the middle class. Deregulation, de-funding of social programs, tax cuts for the wealthy, and a hefty debt left over from an unjustified war, a debt which my generation will end up having to pay off.”
You remind me of that annoying parent at basketball games who yells at his kid, but has no idea how to play basketball himself.

The 2008 crash happened in big part because of the fed’s implicit guarantee on housing loans. Watch the Keynes vs. Hayek rap videos,

Then watch IOUSA, and notice how much entitlement programs actually cost.
Finally, look at the numbers, and notice the percentage of taxes the rich already pay.

Bob, I love to read your articles. I feel about the same as you on many of writes. We the people need to step up and show others we love this nation, and stop the growth of government.

“Downsized out of his fortune 500 job in 2008″ If I remember right, the market crash of 2008 happened as a result of Bush’s free market assault on the middle class. Deregulation, de-funding of social programs, tax cuts for the wealthy, and a hefty debt left over from an unjustified war, a debt which my generation will end up having to pay off. Our government is bad because of the close relationships our politicians have with big business. Capitalism is not necessarily bad when it is properly regulated by a government, and government is not necessarily bad when it is kept in check by its citizens.

Thank you Bob Weeks for your website.

For the past two years I have been studying the writings of Murray Rothbard. The more I dig into his philosophy and compare it to what we know about history, the more I appreciate his extraordianary intellectual capacity. Everyone should read everything written by Murray Rothbard.

A contemporary intellectual giant who brings more insight than I will ever have is John F. Welsh. He recently published a new book on Max Stirner. His previous book, After Multiculturalism, The Politics of Race and the Dialectics of Liberty is like a breath of fresh air.

Mr. Weeks, I hope you keep up your good work.

As I read over this page and the comments, I see another group of people totally and completely fooled. Supporting the “right-left” partisian game will get you nowhere as is evident from history and the situation we currently find ourselves in. Time is running out. One only needs to look up into the formerly blue skies and see the chemtrails poisioning the land and us too. (please watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jf0khstYDLA ) This is happening right NOW. Both parties are doing NOTHING to stop it! It is time to wake up and realize that most of the persons from BOTH political parties have but one main goal and that is supporting corporate/globalist/bankster agendas!
As long as they can keep you all distracted fighting back and forth over liberal/conservative views/issues, they will be advancing their own agendas without any real resistance. Unless we all work together as americans regardless of race, religion, creed or whatever, they will succeed. Vote ALL republicans and democrats out of office! Vote for Independant candidates with no hidden agendas/corporate interest’s! Unless this happens you are all wasting your time and we are all going to suffer the loss of American Sovereignty and god knows what other future horrors! WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!

No offense to Middle America, but if someone went to Columbia or Wharton, [even if] their company is a fumbling, mismanaged bank, why should they all of a sudden be paid the same as the guy down the block who delivers restaurant supplies for Sysco out of a huge, shiny truck?” e-mails an irate Citigroup executive to a colleague.

“I’m not giving to charity this year!” one hedge-fund analyst shouts into the phone, when I ask about Obama’s planned tax increases. “When people ask me for money, I tell them, ‘If you want me to give you money, send a letter to my senator asking for my taxes to be lowered.’ I feel so much less generous right now. If I have to adopt twenty poor families, I want a thank-you note and an update on their lives. At least Sally Struthers gives you an update.”

It is difficult to sympathize with these people, their comments laced with snobbery and petulance. But you can understand their shock: Their world has been turned on its head. After years of enjoying favorable tax rates, they are facing an administration that wants to redistribute their wealth. Their industry is being reordered—no one knows what Wall Street will look like in a few years. They are anxious, and their anxiety is making them mad.

Their anger takes many forms: There is rage at Obama for pushing to raise taxes (“The government wants me to be a slave!” says one hedge-fund analyst); rage at the masses who don’t understand that Wall Street’s high salaries fund New York’s budget (“We’re *****,” says a former Lehman equities analyst, referring to the city); rage at the people who don’t “get” that Wall Street enables much of the rest of the economy to function (“JPMorgan and all these guys should go on strike—see what happens to the country without Wall Street,” says another hedge-funder).

“The market determines what people are worth. Did I think I was overpaid? You betcha. But a lot of people are overpaid.”
