Pelosi, Obama and Reid (POR) are giddy with the sweet smell of victory.\u00a0 But, sometimes a big win is the precursor to disaster.\u00a0 In 1990, Cosmo World Corporation bought the Pebble Beach, Spyglass Hill, Spanish Bay and Del Monte Golf Courses, along with the Lodge at Pebble Beach and the Inn at Spanish Bay.\u00a0 Recall that Japanese interests has also recently taken control of New York\u2019s Rockefeller Center, Columbia Pictures, CBS Records and several other prestigious U.S. hotels.\u00a0 Many Americans were concerned that the United States economy was about to become a subsidiary of Japan.<\/p>\n

The following story from the September 17, 1990 edition of the New York Times describes the glee displayed by the Japanese at bagging this trophy.<\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/1990\/09\/17\/business\/pebble-beach-glee-is-hard-to-hide.html?pagewanted=all<\/a><\/p>\n

But, the problem was that, prior to purchasing Pebble Beach, Cosmo World Corporation had grossly underestimated the cost.\u00a0 This purchase was based on projections that were impossible to achieve.\u00a0 On February 22, 1992, the following headline appeared in the Washington Post<\/p>\n

Struggling With Debt, Japanese Developer Sells Pebble Beach Golf Links<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Washington Post <\/a>| February 22, 1992 <\/strong>| Martha Groves<\/p>\n

POR pushed through this bill with the belief that ultimately, Americans would be grateful.\u00a0 However, I honestly think they failed to consider the cost.\u00a0 They were so anxious to get this passed, that they never considered the possibility that those opposing the bill might be right.\u00a0 No plan or strategy, based on something that is untrue, is likely to succeed.\u00a0 This entire bill is based on the false premise that we can provide free health care to an additional 31 million people at no cost.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Perhaps the following quote from Winston Churchill [White House luncheon, June 26, 1954] says it best:<\/p>\n

The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtual of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Tonight Al Sharpton said that when American\u2019s voted for Obama they were voting for socialism.\u00a0 Actually, that may be true, but they didn\u2019t knowingly vote for socialism.\u00a0 The Democrats have written a check, with our money, that they cannot cash.\u00a0 They cannot possibly raise taxes enough to pay for this.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On February 5, 1976, Prime Minister Thatcher, during an interview by Llew Garner on the Thames Television show This Week,<\/span><\/strong> said that:\u00a0 Socialist governments traditionally make a financial mess.\u00a0 They [socialists] always run out of other people\u2019s money.\u00a0 <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

If POR are right, and this is a great idea, the economy will rebound, everyone will have free health insurance forever, \u00a0and people will look back upon tonight as a cause for celebration.\u00a0 But, if their critics are right, and this is a complete disaster, then their future is a POR GONE CONCLUSION.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
