I'll keep this short and simple. The candidate I would most likely support is Ron Paul, that is to say, if I was going to vote. Which I probably won't, because anyone who passed third grade math could tell you it makes no difference whether or not you vote. Blah blah only voters get to complain, etc etc, yeah I said that shit when I was a deluded idiot Green Party wannabe in 8th grade.

Maybe I'll vote to make myself happy, but that is endorsing a facade of an election system that we have as well, even if I am voting for the only man that actually understand economics on the ballot. And really, that's what it comes down to: All of these idiots on the Democratic ticket couldn't pass an introductory economics course, and almost all of the idiots on the Republican ticket are only slightly better economically and usually way worse socially.

So, there you have it. Everyone sucks. Buy gold (Buff and I have been telling people this since 2001; I hope some of you actually listened). The economy sucks, and there are obvious reasons why. End steel tariffs and let Japanese and European automakers crush the American union-led inefficient companies. Stop bailing out airlines; fucking Southwest turns a huge profit. Stop intervening in shit that doesn't matter, and if you can't, stop lying about it and just say you are invading countries to steal their oil (not that this is necessarily happening now). At least be honest about it.

Oh well. The economy is in a recession now (M3 figures have it as sunk, which is probably why the government stopped publishing M3 variables awhile ago), despite what GDP will tell you, since they manipulate that shit to make it look like there is less than 2% inflation. 2% inflation my ballsack, nice try Bernanke.

Thus ends my quarterly «politics suck and so do people who actually follow it» post.

EDIT: And by the way, I hate to say I told you so.
