The loss of newspapers isn't sad because they can't carry your stupid opinion articles Michael Reagan…it's sad because newspapers have REPORTERS that actually go gather facts and INVESTIGATE.

If all the investigative journalism disappears, Michael Reagan won't have any data to come up with his conclusions….ha…just kidding…he doesn't need facts.

“How can President Obama talk about continued bailouts — especially one directed toward the media — when we fail to address the concerns of the small businesses that make up a majority of the jobs in our country? How about targeted tax cuts/rebates for these small businesses instead?”

You need to get up to speed Michael. The Soros/Obama Agenda is to move this country away from Capitalism to a Collectivist State. The closest analogy, as I see it, is Mussolini-style Fascism: a blend of dictatorial socialism sprinkled with a dash of “capitalism lite” to keep it all financially solvent. I see it as “sharecropper capitalists” working on Massa's socialist plantation. It didn't work for Il Duce and it won't work here either but messianist's are nothing if not deluded narcissists.

The first and most significant casualities of Collectivism is the bourgeoise so don't expect any government bailouts for small business owners. The latter are already burdened to the breaking point with ever-increasing bureaucratic strictures and taxes. That's only going to get worse. Competition, as in Capitalism, is anathema to the MarxiCrat egalitarian utopianist's who now own the country. We're on the brink and headed South.

You are absolutely right. Look at how the automobile revolutionized the transportation industry. The transporation industry didn't die, it evolved. In the process, however, a lot of industritries that made up the transporation industry “did” die, because they could not compete, or were no longer even needed. This kind of thing happens all the time, it is just the news industries' turn this time.

Maybe it's not too late for the ox cart industry either. Or better yet the cocktail umbrella industry. (Why did we have to lose that to outsourcing?) The auto industry appears safe, if you count the Gore-backed (That's Gore as in Albert Gore Jr)company that gets $529 Million to make $89,000 cars in Finland. ( I didn't realize just how crucial Finland was to our economic success) This bailout trend reminds me a bit of the old MCI marketing gimmick about the friends and family plan.
