CONTRADICTION: If Corporations Aren’t People, How Can They Be “Greedy?”

“Washington asking for more tax revenue is like an alcoholic asking for more cash before a trip to the liquor store,” Sessions says in the video. “Even if the alcoholic asked a millionaire for the cash, it doesn’t change the fact that the money’s not being wisely used.”

Indeed.

UPDATE: Reader Eric Klaus emails:

When politicians, especially Obama talk about how we used to be able to do “Big Things” like send a man to the moon, or build the Hoover Dam… they are playing on Americans pride.

But Obama fails to understand this in today’s context. He has gone all in on “Green Energy” and “Bullet Trains” and “Rebuilding Roads and Bridges”…when the real “Big Things” are things like Google’s self driving cars.

Imagine for a moment…if he would have gone into office and laid out a plan that would pave the way for Self Driving Cars in 10 Years or 15 years. This is something that is actually obtainable…but has many formidable obstacles, the least of which is the actual technology. There are HUGE obstacles in updating the laws and regulations to accomodate self driving cars. There are huge obstacles in terms of accident liability. There are huge risks to companies developing these technologies if they happen to kill a child in a school zone. The regulatory framework is a bigger obstacle than the actual technology.

Imagine if he would have taken the lead in reworking the Legal and Regulatory Framework to accomodate the REAL cars of tomorrow. He would go down in history as a true visionary and leader. But unfortunately there isn’t room for corruption, graft and theft of funds in this technology..so therefore he bet the house on Solyndra and the Chevy Volt, and Cash for Clunkers.

Indeed.
