A quick google of “Obama” and “fatal conceit” harvests over 16,000 links. The interpretation of Barack Obama and his government as an instantiation of what Friedrich Hayek examined in his classic book The Fatal Conceit has become one of the dominant narratives of today. In May John Stossel wrote a widely circulated piece on the topic. This week, Thomas Sowell weighs in. So does Sheldon Richman. And also Ralph Reiland. I’m guessing we’ll be hearing more about this over the next month and year.
UPDATE: Another one. Update 2: One more.

Barack Obama is a very special person since he is the first black president of the United States of America. his ability as a president is also very good and his plans for economic recovery is a good one.
Barack Obama may be a charismatic leader but somehow his economic policies are not that great in my own opinion. But still i am thankful that a Obama is the current president of the unitied states.
