The Zombies Must Shut Up
"I don't want the folks who created the mess to do a lot of talking, I want them just to get out of the way so we can clean up the mess." - Obama
The "folks" that created this mess were FDR and his administration when they allowed companies to offer health insurance as a benefit under wage and price controls during WWII. Obviously, Obama knows this. What he is doing is obliquely referring to the threat we face from the undead. Be afraid. Be very afraid.

repeat then repeat then repeat...
On ReasonTV, Robert Samuelson describes the last 25 years of prosperity as a time when we forgot that crashes and downturns really do happen. "We lost our sense of risk." That is very similar to Kissinger's explanation of World War I. After a century without a major war the Europeans "lost their sense of the tragic."
Never learning from history, we seemed doomed to always be Santayana's bitch.
