“Low prices do not cause growth,” said the recent headline in the Wall Street Journal.
Economists scratch their heads, wondering why unexpectedly low gas prices did not stimulate consumer expenses. After all, many people save $ 100 per month, when they fill their tanks for $ 2 for a gallon instead of USD 3.50, which they spent in August 2014.
“Many economists predicted that savings would act as a gigantic tax reduction, raising long -term consumers into stronger expenses and increasing slow economic growth,” wrote the columnist of the magazine Eric Morath. “Instead, the economy remains in the trajectory of slow growth, which meant economic expansion in the last 6-1/2 years.”
Well, let’s see. What happened six and six months ago? Ah, yes. Immediately after the Democrats took Obamacare through the Congress on the stock market without a single Republican vote. Also hand by the Dodda-Frank financial reform project, under which hundreds of miniature banks fall throughout the country.
When more Obamacare falls into the equipment, more jobs are destroyed, and medium income consumers charged with higher costs and lower insurance. In many cases, people who previously had good rules pay another 200 to USD 300 more per month for “catastrophic” plans with high deductions.
Consumers lose more money because of Obamacare than they save on the pump. This does not translate into carefree expenses.
But this is more complicated. The current, cautious mood also reflects the loss of confidence that everyone in Washington can fix everything and even tell the truth. American voters handed over the chamber in 2010 to Republicans, who then took the Senate in 2014 with a clear promise that they would stop the Obama’s express train.
It didn’t happen. Democrats won from year to year. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court attached a constitution in nodes to ensure Obamacare’s survival, release the environmental protection agency and other dishonest bureaucrats and redefine natural marriage as scrap metal of homogeneous bigotry.
General federal expenses increased, which led to a domestic debt worth over $ 18 trillion. Congress even managed to convey the risky Obama nuclear treaty with Iran, avoiding the constitutional requirement to vote by the Senate to approve all treaties. They looked passively how Obama turned the army into a social dish of Petri, including pushing women into combat roles.
Even after the home rebellion led to the replacement of John Boehner’s speaker by Paul Ryan, the great senior party could not force her capsule to employ his power to challenge the radical program of President Obama.
Instead, Mr. Ryan, cooperating with the leader of the minority Nancy Pelosi, has just adopted an expenditure account worth $ 1.1 trillion by 2016, which retains Obamacare, pays for the illegal Amnesty of Obama, keeps funds for the cities of the sanctuary and planned parenting, and increases debt, and increases debt domestic by billions of dollars.
Republican leaders sworn that 2016 would be different.
Yes, the same people who have been playing to Obama each time, talk strenuous again during the coming election year. Well, it’s relief. I was afraid that they would speak quietly to go with saturated pasta, which they carry as a “stick”.
A great game in 2016, says Rep
It requires a strenuous conversation. “What we decide to allocate time on the Senate floor to be quite honest with you will be to some extent … dictated by fears of places such as New Hampshire and Pennsylvania, and Ohio and Wisconsin,” he said. McConnell in an interview with the telegraph of GOP strategy to preserve shaky seats of the Senate. There is nothing better than giving opponents a chance to condemn your motives as purely political.
On September 29, the leader of the majority of the Kevin McCarthy chamber boasted Sean Hannity that the House election committee for the House Commission hurt the presidential election numbers of Hillary Clinton. Gleephul Democrats took over this gift, calling on the “politicized” committee to solve, even when the E -Mail Clinton server scandal flourished. If the Republicans were a football team, they would call punishments just behind the goal line.
Meanwhile, looking into the future, the spokesmen of the White House say that Obama is planning executive orders on climate change and weapon control. And why not? In this way he had ruled for almost seven years. Neither congress nor most courts found the spine to repeal their executive exaggeration.
But don’t worry. As Phil Gramm and Michael Solon recently wrote: “The Republican president can overthrow any Obama executive action, which after taking the oath.”
Yes, the newly elected president, who respects the rule and constitutional separation of power, could do it if he was so willing.
Instead of leaving in disgust, we all have to do homework before we decide on a presidential candidate. We should support local, state and national legislators who will take material steps to preserve our freedoms. The rates are huge.
