    I can identify with this guy…

    …SFL was once a conservative, but came around to the “other side” upon closer examination of a wide range of issues.

    Here’s a few things to examine. Liberal environmental and economic policies lead to inflation, unemployment and poverty. Here’s how

    Environmental policies that impede growth and development for no reason other than to do so, prevent energy, food and employment availability to be outstripped by population growth. This lack of supply to meet demand results in higher prices and unemployment. The increased unemployment results in a depression of wages. When wages are depressed at the same time that prices are rising, people are faced with the food or shelter choice. A choice that inevitably leads to many of them being unable to adequately afford either, hence poverty. Liberal economic policies that tax businesses and successful people mercilessly cause those entities to lose their ability to be productive hence adding further to the downward spiral. Taxation causes goods and services provided to become more expensive as well as causing some businesses to collapse under the burden entirely. Again causing increased inflation while causing increased unemployment. Eventually there ends up being more people on limited government assistance than there are people to pay for it. Liberalism never lifted anyone out of poverty, it just gave those who were there by choice a lot more company.

    Taxation you say? Like taking the tax breaks from the oil companies, yet giving Hugo Chavez one, and thinking that the cost wouldn’t be passed on to us? I just love how the cost has gone up in the past 2 weeks..
