So you guys all know how Bush came in with a Libertarian Message and ruled with a Fascist Fist? Guess what, suddenly the guy is embracing liberty again:
I think I get it now: Phase One: Promise Liberty. Phase Two: Bring Fascism and Corportism ever closer while blaming liberty for all our woes. Phase Three: Exonerate Liberty and hope no one notices the flip-flop. Politicians. I just found it funny.
Oh, and the speech:
Spoiler!
Government intervention is not a cure-all … History has shown that the greater threat to economic prosperity is not too little government involvement in the market, it is too much government involvement in the market…. Our aim should not be more government…the surest path to that growth is free markets and free people…. move forward with the free market principles that have delivered prosperity and hope to people all across the globe.…
Capitalism offers people the freedom to choose where they work and what they do, the opportunity to buy or sell products they want, and the dignity that comes with profiting from their talent and hard work. The free market system provides the incentives that lead to prosperity — the incentive to work, to innovate, to save, to invest wisely, and to create jobs for others. And as millions of people pursue these incentives together, whole societies benefit. Free market capitalism is far more than economic theory. It is the engine of social mobility — the highway to the American Dream. It's what makes it possible for a husband and wife to start their own business, or a new immigrant to open a restaurant, or a single mom to go back to college and to build a better career. It is what allowed entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley to change the way the world sells products and searches for information. It's what transformed America from a rugged frontier to the greatest economic power in history — a nation that gave the world the steamboat and the airplane, the computer and the CAT scan, the Internet and the iPod.
Ultimately, the best evidence for free market capitalism is its performance compared to other economic systems. Free markets allowed Japan, an island with few natural resources, to recover from war and grow into the world's second-largest economy. Free markets allowed South Korea to make itself into one of the most technologically advanced societies in the world. Free markets turned small areas like Singapore and Hong Kong and Taiwan into global economic players. Today, the success of the world's largest economies comes from their embrace of free markets.
Meanwhile, nations that have pursued other models have experienced devastating results. Soviet communism starved millions, bankrupted an empire, and collapsed as decisively as the Berlin Wall. Cuba, once known for its vast fields of cane, is now forced to ration sugar. And while Iran sits atop giant oil reserves, its people cannot put enough gasoline — in their cars.
The record is unmistakable: If you seek economic growth, if you seek opportunity, if you seek social justice and human dignity, the free market system is the way to go. And it would be a terrible mistake to allow a few months of crisis to undermine 60 years of success.
TBH it's pathetic. Bush is in power and all the republicans agree with his Fascist schemes. Bush is about to leave and everyone (including Bush) suddenly <3s free markets. To think a Democratic President elect can cause an entire party to abandon fascism and seek a "new Image."
Most of Bush's policies have always hurt our liberties, from the PATRIOT act to all the market regulations he set up. He is just trying to make himself look better before Obama takes over.
Everything is written is soo full of shit behind a facade. Never learn to trust media and politician. They are full of crap, huge business deals under the table are made everyday to **** us normal hard working people. There is no interest of the people, its interest of the business. The people are just little soldiers on chess board, expandable. I'm from a politicians (family) background, i know the deal. (not from the US)

stop bitching about the government not being like you want it
governments are never perfect. and if you hate it that much theres 200+ other countries with different governments you can always move to. Somalia is basically an anarchy, why dont you move there and see what its like?
its funny how so many people whine about the government being so scary and having some dark secret that it hides but still live here.
