| Excerpt of a Left-Wing-oriented story: Many on America's left are also Âdisgruntled with Obama. They believe the healthcare reform, without a public option, will be inadequate, that the war in Afghanistan will unravel, the stimulus bill was insufficient to kick-start the economy and that his economic team is being run by Wall Street. But unlike the right they have so far failed to turn their disillusionment into a potent political force. |

| #3 It is possible to put the right people in charge of the economy... It's to put the people who earned their own money in charge of their own money. Socialism is just a way whereby special interests destroy wealth creation. With enough socialism wealth creation falls below the level needed to sustain existing assets and this eventually kills the country. In the absence of competing currencies in an area there is a problem in making sure the currency is not captured by special interests and used to hide problems caused by things such as socialism or even rent-seeking big businesses who can bribe regulators. |

| #2 Shades of Carter. Alienate the center, alienate the jews, alienate the left, and all that remains are afr-americans and the unions. |

| #1 The last bankrupt argument of the Left has been that Socialism didn't work because the right people were never in charge. Now they put their 'right' people in and it still won't work. Their fundamental problem was that there never has been or will be the 'right' people. |
