Could the free market have a worse advocate than the Republican party?

Thank you for the Obama alibi. Nice piece of lets not blame Obama for anything and here is alibi #10,000. The housing crash was created by Dems Barney Frank and Sen Chris Dodd who created the no down payment housing loans that put many people into homes and into debt way beyond their means. The both thought they just did something for the little guy and at the same time did really good stuff for the bankers (and Dodd got a payoff for that that caused him to agree to not run again in lieu of jail). The free market runs just fine if you leave it alone. The Gov has a small role in the free market but nothing like the Obama view of government is the economy. Now, you could use some supply and demand economics training and you would understand that capitalism progresses so long as people can fail and others can succeed. Its not about affirmative action, labor unions, law after law and withering taxes...thats government and gov in the economy does not work. Obama has spent nearly three trillion dollars so far meddling with the gov and it has not only failed it has dug us deeper. After his recent and famous jobs bill (3 yrs into his first term he decided this was something to do???) the market fell 100 points the next day. He needs to go lay down and leave the market to sort itself out. So you are a Ron Paul dude. Well good for you for helping to elect Obama to second term. The liberals will thank you for that.

A worse advocate? Yes. There are groups out there that don't support the free market at all.

However, It is true that the Republicans have been quite a bit hypocritical over there stances involving capitalism, but Democrats do the exact same thing. I believe the resolution is removing ourselves from political parties and electing fiscal conservatives that can get the job done, regardless of political affiliation (short being part of the Communist Party of America) which shouldn't matter. You have to elect people on an individual basis, not on a party basis, that is how you get the right people in government who can turn this country around and resolve our economic crisis.
