Politics and Culture

OK. The rebuilding begins:

1. Prevent the permanent. That means prevent huge government takeovers of things like the health care industry. Once the details of any plan comes out, the people will probably oppose it. If we can delay it long enough, the people will elect enough Republicans to permanently squash the ideas.

Is this the right thing to do? Yes. I think people voted for "change," but not for "meaningful change." How do I know this? Because Obama's campaign strategy wasn't, "Let's get health care and redistribute wealth!" It was "change," "McBush," and a bunch of lies on taxes and stuff.

2. Remember what things looked like in 2008. That is, we don't have a "department of poverty" today, right? So, when Obama creates one, target it for elimination. It's not going to work, right?
