If you truly didn't like whatever loss of liberty you perceived during the last 8 years, you should be complaining loudly now at the current administration. In fact you should be marching on Washington instead of trying to convince everybody that all's well now, and those with an actual financial stake in the economy who are complaining about problems ahead are just "spoiled children" and "alarmists". What's been outlined as of recent by this new and over-reaching Democrat filled government makes alot of the last 8 years pale in comparison in this area.

Now there are gross interventions and total losses of assets in the private sector to be managed by the feds. There is much more regulation coming outlined with nothing there that regulates that which protects consumers and product safety. Their trying to regulate financial compensations and other things the government should have no part of. Their going forward with their plans to implement "mandatory service". Fortunately, the so called "alarmists" have been successful in pushing them away from government confiscation of 401(k) assets for now. The so called "alarmists" have also made the administration rebuff and reverse calls for military service people have to pay for their own treatments.

The last 8 years are irrelevant at this point. But I did speak out loud about what I saw Bush do that I felt was improper. But honestly, Bush wasn't trying to turn as many people as possible into a government recipient. He actually saw the value in people keeping as much money as they earned in order for them to be the engine of economic growth. Unlike Obama's view that government with him at the helm is the only way to create a "growth vehicle". Seriously, people voted for change. And this "change" is truly no good. It's not personal, nor am I saying "damn you" to anyone for it. But my point is that elections matter. Obama wants to peek at my hard drive? Don't know if that's true but it wouldn't surprise me. He has no problem encroaching on me, my healthcare, my taxes, and my companies business.
