FORA.tv - Obamanomics: Is Obama Bankrupting America?

FORA.tv - Obamanomics: Is Obama Bankrupting America?: "I consider myself to be liberal, but I found myself agreeing with almost all of the views the speakers expressed in the video.

The title is a bit misleading because there is no mention of 'bankrupting,' and as the speakers repeatedly pointed out: the problems of having special interest corporate lobbying and deal making with government are pervasive with either prominent American party in power. One speaker specifically pointed out that the ad hominem within the title is not productive. Near the end, there was actually a thoughtful, constructive discussion on implementing health care reform, most specifically a single payer health care system.

Criticism seemed to fall heavily and equally on both sides of the aisle. 'Conservative'(in the Pro-Republican sense of the word) snipes were minimal."
