White House Group Think Is Driving Us Crazy

   Amazed by the unending outpouring of bad ideas from the White House, I have come to the realization that we have and continue to be the victims of Groupthink.
   Wikipedia's definition: Groupthink is a psychological phenomenon that occurs within a group of people, in which the desire for harmony or conformity in the group results in an incorrect or deviant decision-making outcome. Group members try to minimize conflict and reach a consensus decision without critical evaluation of alternative ideas or viewpoints, and by isolating themselves from outside influences.
   So, as long as his "People" are satisfied with decisions, he's ok with them, too. And we let him get away with them because he is a victim and must be defended.
   The Democrats passed the ACA without a single Republican vote, based on poor assumptions and absent logic. Pie in the Sky thinking. Pie in the Sky because it is going to be an entitlement that makes SS and Medicare look like game of marbles. The Gorilla in the china shop is the cost, of course. Coming to bear, it will be shocking. One answer has already been floated. Single Payer System (U.S. Government) Take all retirement  savings to pay for government entitlements in return for shares in banks...or something. 
   I can see those twenty something liberals in the GROUP endorsing that idea.
   It's so preposterous it may not ever come up, but something huge and breathtakingly negative will happen when our credit rating is not only downsized but drops into a black hole. No country, not even the USA, can borrow it's way to solvency. Well, in the minds of Obama's neophyte Group of naive children, but not in the real world. Never.
   Meanwhile, Obama's Group keeps on Groupthinking it's way to amazement with itself, and we keep running around in circles, responding to crazy ideas coming in machine gun fashion.
