Happy New Year!!

I really like xiat's third prediction - it's something I have been thinking about for sometime.

Perhaps this massive intervention by governments and its nil to negative impact will finally disabuse the public of the idea that government can meddle in the economy and get good results.

This is an idea that goes back to the fdr new deal which is still largely and erroneously believed to be the means by which the world got out of the depression. While many have proven it not to be the case most including all of the democratic leadership believe it did and that will work now.

If however as xiat predicts, the policy fails and the emperor is revealed to have no clothes, we could the extinguishing of the greatest left-wing myth extant. Could the second biggest myth - agw - be close behind in its demise ?

1) The three US auto makers will get more taxpayer money.
2) The CPC will record a record deficit and form an alliance with the NDP.
3) Federal spending will hit levels never seen before in Canada.

1) In 2009, the MSM finally starts to get it. Report, not make.

2) A 2009 realization; 2008 downturn was triggered by summer's oil price spike to $147.

3) The Markets post the biggest rally ever as inflation takes hold because gov'ts continue to print money, thereby devaluing all fiat money. aka, buy something, anything, before it is worthless !!

1. A scandal will occur with the bailout money. George Bush will be blamed.
2. Civil War will break out in Southeast Asian countries between Muslims. and non-Muslims.
3. Dalton McGuinty will introduce the biggest deficit budget in Ontario history.

3 President Hillary appoints Bill as VEEP.

2. Liberals manage to pass themselves off, in MSM, as government in waiting, without presenting a single policy proposal.

3. Something the West does gets blamed on "climate change," while the spewing from India and China continues unabated.

IOW same old same old, in a new package.

To all, a happy, prosperous and healthy New Year!
