The Fuhrer's first speech could have been about 2010 USA

Here's a prediction for you.

There will be no Fourth Reich in the U.S. with Obama as Fuhrer. Inflation will not reach Weimar Germany levels. There will be no FEMA death camps for noble patriots and fellow slave-moralists.

But, the victims on this site will continue feeling like victims and posting their sick-minded predictions for the end of the world that they secretly wish to occur, "searching for truth".

Life will go on. Others will make money and put it to work for more fulfilling and life-affirming purposes. Will you get up on your feet and begin to live life? Or grow old yelling at your TV.

The National Socialism of Obamanomics
By James Srodes from the May 2009 issue

It is commonplace today to believe we should refer to the benign innovations of John Maynard Keynes during the Great Depression in order to understand what is driving President Obama’s team of economic strategists. But a look back to that time leads one to conclude the Depression-era economist who appears most relevant to what is going on bears the improbable name of Hjalmar Horace Greeley Schacht.

(...)

Before devotees of our prince-president start reaching for their pitchforks and tar buckets, let’s be clear that the brand of national socialism now being practiced in Washington has nothing to do with the capital-lettered National Socialism that drove the horrible Hitler regime or the equally disgraceful brands of big-F Fascism practiced by Mussolini, Franco, Peron, (...)

Obamanomics, if that is the word, also bears little resemblance to the idealized soft-socialism we attribute to the FDR era, or what came in harder form in the wave of nationalizations and state-owned enterprises that the Labour Party tried to run in Britain, or in the capital-S Socialist governments that held sway over the European Union. Neither Larry Summers nor Timothy Geithner nor Federal Reserve Board chairman Ben Bernanke want to take over the management of Wall Street’s banks, let alone have to set up complex government agencies to operate General Motors or any other business sector further down the Toxic Asset Rescue Plan food chain.

Instead of actually trying to take over the formal management of the private sector, the Obama plan is to use the printing presses of the Federal Reserve as a powerful lever to force private enterprise to serve the administration’s social agenda. Congress, pacified with pork injections, will have no policy role.

(...)

Even Adolf Hitler, who boasted of his uninterest in economics, justified putting him into the bank and then making him head of the overall economy, citing Schacht’s “consummate skill in swindling other people.” All Hitler wanted was money for guns and the appearance that jobs were being created. Until Hermann Goering ousted him on the eve of war in 1939, Schacht pumped things up with a will.

(...)

But as Tooze documents, much of that rebound was a façade.

(....)
... how likely are President Obama’s three wizards—Summers, Geithner, and Bernanke—to be successful trying much the same remedy today? No less than Chairman Volcker, who after all knows how the Fed should do its job in a crisis, confesses alarm. He warned recently, “We’re in a government-dependent financial system; I never thought I would live to see the day.…We’ve got to fight to get away from that.”
 
Quote from Larson:

Incorrect. Although there appears to be more than the usual amount of crackpots among conspiracy theorists, the cause is a good one in that it searches for the truth, something gov't and politicians want to hide from the masses. The propaganda and power grab coming out of DC today is alarming. When the constitution becomes a "GD piece of paper" as GW Bush called it. That will be the end game.
Cite the source of your reference please for the "GD piece of paper." If he said it, even in a twisted form of jest, I'd love the reference as proof. Please post reference or point me in the general direction of the source, otherwise your claim is NOT valid.

Do you even live in America? This sounds like a post from the outside the borders. No mention of respect for the constitution.
 
I see no resemblance between Obama and Hitler but living in the south all my life, I know a right wing bigot whenever I see one. Hitler could call himself a socialist and fly a swastika which could just as well been replaced by the stars and bars.

Being conservative is great but when ones political thoughts are being driven by bigotry it's pathetic.

Maybe its time to require a psychological test at the voting booth.

I certainly do.

You have a choice to be a victim and live in that sickly-sweet psychological addiction. I made the negative choice.

Oh, I see, now we are reduced to calling people bigots, who we know nothing about. You sound like the bigot.

Good to hear. No victim here either. It doesn't mean you can't be an informed citizen.

I agree with you.

But I also think it's a good idea to look back at how Hitler came to power. People are all to quick to dismiss as 'long ago, far away; things like that don't happen nowadays'. The reality is that people are just as stupid today as they were back then.
