>For extra credit: Now that trillions in stimulus, massive bailouts, government takeovers, multiple 2000+page statist laws, QE1, QE2 and 0% interest rates have strangled the US economy and put us on a path in eerily similar historical line with the Great Depression, what will the proposed solutions from Obama include? Once he's finished his vacation of course. ;)

The only thing that truly got us out of the Depression was war... it sure as hell wasn't the New Deal.

This time around war played a part in getting us into this mess, and now we've had our share of the New, New Deal.... so do we now need a bigger war or no war?

Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi; you're my only hope. :)
