England's Liberals On The Skids

I have always said, when you realize that you would have to be at least 46 years old to remember the disaster that was President Jimmy Carter, there is no reason to fear the liberals taking over in America. I give them two years to wreck the economy, the only thing that matters to most Americans, well other than the 'bar life' and scoring the next "hook up". It is already apparent that the high energy costs, and the high food costs are taking their toll on Americans.

I had to go out to Home Depot Sunday afternoon, a usual exercise in my house, to get material for the next remodel project. Our home is over 30 years old and needs a lot of continuous upgrades, like, well, you name it and it breaks down regularly ... But that is not the tale, the real Sunday afternoon story was the deserted roads, the deserted stores, the complete lack of a vibrant economy. Sheesh, what happened, where did the people go?

Looks like the Democrats 2007 energy bill is already having an effect, even before the pittances are mailed.

The credit problem, caused by the notion that not being able to get a loan because you don't qualify to repay it is discrimination, is now having it's full impact. Financial markets worldwide are imploding. Maybe loan qualifications weren't discrimination afterall.

Now comes this story from England ...

Support for Labour hits 25-year low

Gordon Brown’s party slipped to 27% – 16 points behind the Conservatives – amid growing concern about the government’s economic competence, a YouGov survey for The Sunday Times shows today.

If the results of the poll were repeated in a general election, David Cameron would storm into Downing Street with a landslide majority of 120 and a string of high-profile cabinet ministers including Alistair Darling, the chancellor, would lose their Commons seats.

WOW, talk about skids. And why? It's the economy, stupid. It always has been, always will be. And high taxes on energy is the most crippling of all.

The main cause of the swing to the Conservatives is the collapse in faith in Brown and Darling’s stewardship of the economy. Just 21% of voters now say they would trust Labour more than the Conservatives to raise their family’s living standards, with the Tories in a decisive lead on this issue.

The overwhelming majority – 83% – believe the economy will either grow more slowly over the next 12 months or slide into recession. Worryingly for Labour, its claims that taxes cannot be cut without harming essential public services are no longer widely accepted.

Six out of 10 back the Tory argument that making the public sector more efficient will create room for lowering the tax burden and almost eight out of 10 – 78% – say the government is not doing enough to cut the amount of taxpayers’ money it wastes.

As in America the Brits have finally figured out the global warming con and ...

There was widespread scepticism about Darling’s individual tax rises. Three out of four or 74% agreed that so-called “green” taxation on polluting cars and flights were a “con” and 85% say the higher alcohol duty rates will do nothing to curb binge drinking.

Global warming, the biggest con in the history of mankind is beginning to kill economies worldwide. It will continue as long as the liberals pay no attention to the state of affairs of individuals, and continuing the quest for higher and higher greenhouse taxes.

How taxes ever did anything to control the weather or the climate is never explained. Not is what the new taxes will be actually used for.

It won't take two years, the liberals have started ahead of schedule. Just remember who Jimmy Carter really was, not the liberal remake. The misery was real, the crippling effects of his policies were real. It nearly stopped America in it's tracks.

Liberals are simple organisms, they have simple policies they resort in - Explained in one short sentence --- Raise taxes, fund socialism and gun control. It's left to the reader to figure out why gun control is so prevalent in liberal dogma.
