The headlines:
Bank of America to slash 40,000 jobs. Solyndra closes, dumps thousands of workers. Unemployment rate up AFTER trillions invested in economy. Union Workers take hostages in Washington State. GE Corp ships thousands of jobs to China.
Yea, yea…you already know that the CEO of GE is Obama’s “Jobs Czar”…it would not be funny if it weren’t true.
This one is the best: “After long vacation, Obama offers Jobs Bill.”
I don’t know about you, but I haven’t had a real vacation in 4 or 5 years. I guess I’m just not smart enough to figure out how to get the taxpayers to foot-the-bill. All I would need is a good teleprompter programming team and a running mate that could make a truck tire sound intelligent…and some campaign cash. I wonder what Paris Hilton is doing in 2016 ??
Why not Young/Hilton 2012 you ask? Simple: Michelle Obama may be the only person on the planet who could out-shop and out-vacation Ms. Hilton, so we would lose the support of the travel and hospitality industry, which, thanks to the Obama’s, is one of the few bright spots in the economy. Plus, with all the extra miles being put on Air Force One, I want to wait for a full overhaul and tune-up before I fly AF1 all around the world.
With all the vacationing, golfing, and speechifying, one thing is without question…Obama does not like to work. He hates it. He has no use for it. Work is for rich people. Rich people work in order to make money to hand over to the government. The government exists to fund the Obama’s vacation packages…and also to prop up businesses like Solyndra and Bank of America.
The ONLY verified job Obama has ever had was an ice cream shop…and he had to steal a social security number to get that job. The number Obama has been using belongs to Harrison J. Bounel:

When a person has never really held down a job, never worked like a dog day-in and day-out, and never seen ½ their paycheck swallowed up in taxes, they have no idea how angry those who do become when they see this hard earned money wasted or given to those who do not contribute in exchange for votes. It is painfully obvious that Team Obama – in the words of Mitt Romney – “don’t have a clue how to create jobs.” How could they?
Now, Obama stands on the soapbox telling others to pass more and more of his already proven failed policies. The President has clearly chosen sides…and in doing so, has made himself an enemy to small business owners everywhere. The very people who COULD create jobs under the right set of conditions have simply chosen to wait until January 2013 to begin hiring…if, and only if, the Republicans send a true conservative job creator to Washington. When the President chose to side with the Soros/Unions/Greens/Redistribution wing…and send them trillions of stimulus dollars – he abandoned the half of the country that actually PRODUCES wealth and jobs.
The very most fundamental part of the economic cycle is what Team Obama simply refuses to acknowledge. It goes like this: Profits = Wealth. Wealth = Profits.
The more government skims off the profits, the less wealth there is. The more government skims off the wealth, the less profit there is. When government inserts itself into the business cycle, it reduces the potential for a business to make a profit. The profit a business makes allows it to create expenses. Expenses means the business is spending money…buying goods and paying wages. The more businesses there are paying wages, the more wealth people (consumers) have to purchase goods and services. If the government is consuming the wealth in the form of taxes, the less money consumers have to make purchases.
Taking money from the productive sectors (Small Businesses) and productive members (free market workers) of society, and giving it to the non-productive sectors (Solyndra, Brazillian Oil) and non-productive members (unions, govt., welfare) simply terminates wealth. The greater the degree of termination, the slower the rate of economic recovery…if it recovers at all.
Obama’s ideology is what drives him. Unfortunately, it also drives about half the country. The non-producers DEMAND that the producers hand over more and more and more of the wealth in the name of fairness. Look at Greece and England…the non-producers destroyed their own countries with burning and looting in a hissy fit demanding a larger share of the wealth cycle in which they had no positive input. It happens here in the United States every time a Democrat Legislator offers up a bill…a bill the producers pay for and the non-producers benefit from. For a non-producer, govt. freebies = votes.
When wealth is terminated, jobs are terminated. It is that simple. Taking a dollar and increasing it to two dollars is considered EVIL in Obama’s mind. Taking the dollar from a person who can make it into two dollars, and handing it to a person who terminates the dollar is considered NOBLE in Obama’s mind. At some point, the ability to be noble simply runs dry.
Jimmy Carter must just sit at home in his easy chair and weep to himself that he is finally, at long last, #2.
