GRATUITOUS REPOST

Because it is exactly IT. From the comments at Six Meat Buffet:

What Barry is doing is the same thing that FDR did in response to an actual economic depression. FDR’s response prolonged the depression and made it more severe as well. Barry knows this and this is why he keeps telling us that it will get worse before it gets better; his plan is tried and true to make it worse before it gets better. The whole point is that as it gets worse it will provide a series of crises by which the government can gain more control over the citizens. Its a plan to make the government bigger which uses as its method instilling fear into the populace to such a degree that they will voluntarily turn over their freedoms to the government. The goal is to leave us as a socialist/communist state where no individual has enough freedom to help themselves, ergo leaving us all dependent on the government. The mainstream press/media has already given over this control voluntarily and most of the Dem majority are in lockstep, so at this point it is a runaway train going downhill. Look for continued usurpation of the constitution US Constitution and imposition of UN standards and International Law to continue to happen as well. They wil try to impose as much as possible as quickly as possible. It won’t be hard to see if you look.
