Riding The Austerity Pony Off The Fiscal Cliff

Why is Dean Baker not our Treasury Secretary? Oh, yeah.  Anyway, it is going to be rough riding to get Obama and his Wall Street cronies to turn away from their heartfelt desire to bring more refined fiscal austerity to the United States in order to redistribute more of the wealth in the country up to Obama's oligarchical bosses.  The decent, sane, intelligent people like Dean Baker are a small minority in and around Washington's policy formulation.  If the programs like Social Security and Medicaid are to be protected--and broadened as they should be!--it will take much effort to make the Democrats do the right thing.
