For example: there is no universal health care being proposed by the majority, the legislative battle, in any case, is not yet over, most the Democrats plus the White House are pro-abortion extremists...and really I would put my money on no legislative result. The Dems in the White House are also *very* interventionist, even if less brazenly imperial (and disloyal) than the Wolfowitz gang. However, also as usual, the ideological points, especially concerning govt subsidies, are right on. I think the Buchananites agree, and this is really one of the splits in the paleo broad tent...the split between the old Federalists and Jeffersonians (though on these issues the Jeffersonians even capitulated). State intervention, protectionism, and dirigisme are 100% American. The State must immediately take control of the Federal Reserve and rein in the international financial institutions so that we can invest in our collapsing industrial power and infrastructure, rather than gamble on paper based on paper based on paper based on paper based on inflated assets. Providing productive labour is also the best way to redistribute resources to the poor and middle class without resorting to confiscatory taxation. The use of State power and planning is naturally necessary to kick out the globalists and take control of, and protect, our own sovereignty. We have done it before. Putin has been doing it in Russia, while the globalists of centre-left and centre-right in the West scream bloody murder.

I wonder if the Senate will go along with the House? If the oil issue is removed through the use of nuclear power and other methods. Do you think liberal interventionist would stop perpetural war for perpetual profits in the Middle East, ignoring their passions to meddle in order to satisfy their greed and their disturbed minds?
