CAN THEY ALL BE WRONG?
Yes they can!
They’ve all been wrong before.

Listen Up… Lines are being crossed
The Hegelian dialectical formula: A (thesis) versus B (anti-thesis) equals C (synthesis).
For example: If (A) my idea of freedom conflicts with (B) your idea of freedom then (C) neither of us can be free until everyone agrees to be a slave.
The Soviet Union was based on the Hegelian dialectic, as is all Marxist writing.
So let’s see where we can apply this today.
The current financial crises (A) causes all sorts of problems (B) so we want the government to fix it (C).
Government involvement in the market is another in a log line of steps into socialism. And then there is this:
Bush: US will work with partners on credit crisis
Oct 11, 10:07 AM (ET)
By MARTIN CRUTSINGER
WASHINGTON (AP) – President Bush emerged from a meeting with foreign financial officials on Saturday and pledged a global response to the credit crisis that will lead toward a “path of stability and long-term growth.”
Bush announced no new strategies to attack the economic woes circling the globe, stressing instead, “We will do what it takes to resolve the crisis and the world’s economy will emerge stronger as a result.”
The president spoke in the Rose Garden outside the White House, joined there in a show of solidarity not long after daybreak by finance officials from the G-7 – Japan, Germany, Britain, France, Italy and Canada, in addition to the United States. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice also attended.
“The United States has a special role to play in leading the response to this crisis,” the president said. “That is why I convened this morning’s meeting here at the White House and it is why our government will continue using all the tools at our disposal to resolve this crisis.”

He added, “As our nations carry out this plan, we must ensure that the actions of one country do not contradict or undermine the actions of another. In an interconnected world, no nation will gain by driving down the fortunes of another. We are in this together. We will come through it together.”
Bush’s comments were aimed at avoiding the mistakes that worsened economic conditions during the Great Depression in the 1930s. Then, some nations pursued go-it-alone strategies such as erecting protectionist trade barriers to shield their domestic industries. Those trade barriers ended up only worsening the global downturn.
In the current crisis, Ireland moved to guarantee all bank deposits, a decision that triggered similar actions in Germany and other nations which were concerned that nervous depositors would move their bank accounts to Ireland.
If this isn’t another step towards a one world government, then color me stupid.
Interesting times ahead. If I didn’t have faith in God, I’d go crazy.
