Sarah Palin, Appeaser

Germany is very, very white, DF. So they must be ethically pure.

I trust that Ben Bernanke, Congress, Geithner, Obama and the GOP are doing all they can for the big banks and Wall Street. If you think Bernanke cares at all about careful management and regulation by the Fed, remember he was the one who could have tightened requirements for bank mortgage loans, stopped 'liar loans' which the Fed only did after the meltdown, and thereby reduced or prevented the huge real estate bubble and subsequent crash. When it did crash the Fed window for free money was open to every shyster firm on Wall Street, while the same are back to the big trading bonuses of 2007 and the banks are milking foreclosures guaranteed by Fannie/Freddie/Ginnie Mae for every dollar they can get from the government, while going slow or blocking mortgage modifications.

I frankly trust German government officials to tell the truth about the US economy more than our own officials. As to the positive effect of Bernanke's money printing for the 'average  worker economy' in the US, Robert Reich's column has been cited:

There are two American economies. One is on the mend. The other is still coming apart.

The one that’s mending is America’s Big Money economy. It’s comprised of Wall Street traders, big investors, and top professionals and corporate executives.

The Big Money economy is doing well these days. That’s partly thanks to Ben Bernanke, whose Fed is keeping interest rates near zero by printing money as fast as it dare. It’s essentially free money to America’s Big Money economy.

Free money can almost always be put to uses that create more of it.....overall compensation in financial services will rise 5 percent this year, and employees in some businesses like asset management will get increases of 15 percent.....But there’s another American economy, and it’s not on the mend. Call it the Average Worker economy.....

I'm missing something here.

She said we should follow Germany's advice, eh?

aaaaaaaaahh......

Germany is more a socialist than it is democratic.

So it's okay to folllow the advice from a socialist nation concerning dangers to our economy concerning inflation, eh?

aaaaaaaaahh......

Germany has strong a strong unionized labor force responsible for the social programs paid with taxes that are about 46% of a person's wages.

And they pay abou $2 for a quart of gasoline because of taxes too.

aaaaaaaaahh......

Now I'm confussed....I thought the Witch from Wasilla was against socialism in all makes and forms? So if she's against it, then why follow their advise?

 

More economics fun and games with Sarah:

What are the odds that Mama Grisly (Gristly?) could even point out Germany on a map? Think she'd even get the right continent?

The few times she's attempted to talk about substantive issues, she always sounds like that kid back in High School who always tried to bullshit her way through class because she was too stupid to even comprehend the homework assignment, let alone the material being taught.

Yeah, taking her advice on listening to a disinterested third party like Germany reminds me od Eric Cantor offering his help on who we should have as minority leader. He is scared of Nancy Pelosi because she is the only effective Dem leader in decades. I'll quote my pal Sarah, and just say, "Thanks but no thanks, Eric. I think we'll make our own decisions about health care & taxes too."

Did you know you can see Russia from Germany?
