How close is Obama to being a socialist?

Energy Queen asked:


Economic Score

This measures how much the candidate believes government should intervene in people’s economic lives. Economic issues include retirement funding, budget allocations, and taxes.

A high score (above 60%) means the candidate believes in personal responsibility for financial matters, and that free-market competition is better for people than central planning by the government.
A low score (below 40%) means the candidate believes that a good society is best achieved by the government redistributing wealth. The candidate believes that government’s purpose is to decide which programs are good for society, and how much should be spent on each program

Obama scored a mere 18%

How much will Obama be happy spending, 50 Trillion?

iviolated3 asked:


As he prepared to head to Washington, DC to vote on a package to rescue the country’s financial system, Obama stressed his promise to review the plan if he becomes president and pledged that taxpayers would never again have to put their money on the line to pay for the irresponsibility of Wall Street executives….

Does ANYONE belive this con-man. Sheesh, how much was the mortage deal he got from REZKO?

Does this make any sense at all? Obama spends 170million on his inagration but freezes pay to his aides?

I love Obama 3.75 asked:


Once again he blames others and places blame on others, he takes no responsibility for himself. Why not set the example and spend conservatively on the inauguration. He criticized McCain for asking the people on his staff who could afford it to work for $1. Now, since people are finally admitting his economic plan will not work, this is what he does just more pandering and nothing getting done.

This is crazy… if he is the agent of change why point the finger at other people to justify what he is doing? He spent 170million and you say so Bush did it too, but that is a lie. We are in an economic downturn. Why did Obama not do as he promised and conserve? I thought he was the agent of change?

MABLE

Has Obama made a big mistake ?

The Right Stuff asked:


Has Obama made a big mistake with America or has America made a bigger mistake with Obama ?

Obama is already spending massive amounts of our money like ” a drunken sailor “. & Obama proposes spending more than any other President in our History.

Is Obama intent upon overspending our economy into an even deeper depression or is Obama just clueless about what he is doing to our nation ?
