What's *Really* Wrong With the Economy?

John Judis, in the New Republic:

"Obama needs to tell people what’s really wrong with the economy, and what needs to be done. Otherwise, he is not doing his job.”

The problem is that he can't say what he really thinks, which is that the government needs to spend a Ton More Money, and that the fair thing to do is just confiscate it from People Who Don't Really Need It.  The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, he probably thinks.
