Chilling Thought of the Day: We Are All Socialists Now

The subheading lede: In many ways our economy already resembles a European one. As boomers age and spending grows, we will become even more French.

So, does the Washington Post and Newsweek know something that Americans do not know?

We are French?

The Newsweek writers are conflicted on what conservatives who deplore an ever increasing role of government in the economy are actually saying – channeling Bush. Remember Bill Clinton’s pronuncement that the “era of big government is over?”

It is but the LEFT wants to try to reimpose it by fear-mongering the current economic crisis and passing a bloated $1 Trillion plus economic Stimulus spending bill.

As a taxpayers revolt is mounting against the Democrat/Obama Economic Stimulus bill, S.1, the specter of increasing socialism is not a fait de comple.
