supply side...Supply Side...SUPPLY SIDE!

The crew at CNBC just finished a 15-minute "Reagonomics is the way" discussion.
After 8-years of this crap, it boggles the mind to hear them parrot this tired crap.
I guess it's to be expected from the RW media.

1. How badly does it have to fail before a conservative realizes

Reaganomics is a failure

5. It didn't fail.

Of course, the stated purpose ("Help the country's economy") is a bald faced lie. The purpose of Reganomics (transfering wealth from the middle class to the wealthy) is a incredible success. As such, Republicans will tout it no matter how badly it hurts the country. They'll never admit it failed its stated purpose so long as it accomplishes its actual purpose.

9. Exactly right!

Reaganomics was perfected as all out class warfare under Bush. The richest got even richer and this was the entire plan. Those of us screaming about it for nearly thirty years are now finally being taken seriously.

3. And now they're spinning the use of TARP $ for Wall St. bonuses

I'm fed up and going to take the dog for a walk.

6. CNBC is fucking useless. Unless the market's taking a dive

and I want to see how bad the numbers are and watch with the sound off, I don't bother with them.

Remember, they're also telling us what a great time this is to buy, buy, buy. Oh, and the economy is basically sound, just step over all the newly unemployed and homeless.

7. Economics for Idiots

What good is supply when there is no demand?
