Hey Roach, who does this sound like?
A neo-liberal threw a pebble in a pond in 1970...and...and...that's why unemployment is 9.6% today.

I suppose it could be luck as well.

As the US goes, so goes Canada. Pretty soon we will substitute US with China. I doubt Canada will ever lead, do you think it will or does?

There is evidence all over the place, including the obvious trends of poverty, unemployment, foreclosures, personal bankruptcies, uninsured, corporate profits, lack of capital investment, etc., you simply won't accept it. Here are a few examples of what the evidence connects to:
I was against the corporate bailouts. And it is in part, those bailouts that have lead to increased corporate profits during this recession.
Zero, risk free cost of capital paid for by you and me, now leading to increased merger and acquisition activity.
I was against "financial reform" and it was those very reforms that allowed or forced banks to strengthen their balance sheets, increase foreclosures, reduce credit availability, increase fees and borrow for their own accounts at zero cost on the backs of the American public.
I was against health care reform that is increasing premiums, reducing coverages, hurting employment and increasing the uninsured and that will potentially bankrupt this country.
