Everyone is worried about the economy, but here’s something to consider.  After the stock market crash of 1929, most economists agree that raising taxes and killing free trade through Smoot-Hawley deepened the depression.

What does Obama want to do when he takes office?  Restrict trade, which they stylishly refer to as “fair trade” and raise taxes.  In fact, Obama couldn’t produce one program he’d be forced to cut given the current economic climate in the last debate.  So, if you want a depression instead of a recession, vote Obama.
