Add to that Doublethink: “Its not nationalization, its protecting the taxpayer’s interests.” A la Harry Reid discussing the potential take over of insolvent bank Citi Group by Uncle Sam.  We can also include President Obama in the Ministry of Truth for his statement that he will slash the budget deficit in half.  He said this on the heels of increasing the deficit by nearly a trillion dollars!  Under Obama, the deficit climbed from $1.2 trillion or nearly $2 trillion and he hasn’t been president for even 100 days yet!  Let me get this straight, we can only save ourselves by spending more and increasing the deficit, yet “We cannot simply spend as we please and defer the consequences.”  Which is it, Mr. Obama?

I now leave you to spend some quality time with Jim Rogers.
