Robert Reich is right, the so called conservatives aren't conservatives! They are regressives.
A real conservative would say we need to get out of the recession, the way you get out is to employ people directly! Because I'm a real conservative and not a regressive, I'm going to make sure government money is spent wisely!
They aren't socio paths, they are abusive perpertrators who define what other people are. Jill Stein said we need to break with this abusive crowd!
Jesse Jones made sure the reconstruction finance corporation books balanced making the depression era public bank a success.

Over the long term the banks make money too. They just don't want to report the write down on their books, take their loss in the short term.
Debt deflation is short term thinking which will crash the system.

From Cracking the Code:
"Thom Hartmann ought to be bronzed. His new book sets off from the same high plane as the last and offers explicit tools and how-to advice that will allow you to see, hear, and feel propaganda when it's directed at you and use the same techniques to refute it. His book would make a deaf-mute a better communicator. I want him on my reading table every day, and if you try one of his books, so will you."
From Cracking the Code:
"In Cracking the Code, Thom Hartmann, America’s most popular, informed, and articulate progressive talk show host and political analyst, tells us what makes humans vulnerable to unscrupulous propagandists and what we can do about it. It is essential reading for all Americans who are fed up with right-wing extremists manipulating our minds and politics to promote agendas contrary to our core values and interests."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Right through the worst of the Bush years and into the present, Thom Hartmann has been one of the very few voices constantly willing to tell the truth. Rank him up there with Jon Stewart, Bill Moyers, and Paul Krugman for having the sheer persistent courage of his convictions."
How about "affluenza" for the word of the day?
