ARE WE LAZY?
Last week at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit, Obama explained
that, "We've been a little bit lazy over the last couple of decades.
He thinks we’re lazy.
I wish it was that simple.
The truth is, in the case of Conservatives,
the biggest problem is APATHY.
I have
been using this blog for over four years now to try to build a fire under the
butts of apathetic conservatives, to little or no avail.
The problem is even more serious with Liberals, or Progressives, or Marxist,
or whatever they are currently calling themselves.
They are marching behind Obama in lock step
with closed eyes, closed ears, and closed minds.
It never ceases to amazed me just how blind they
are, how naïve, ignorant, credulous, and unable to discern fact from fiction,
reality from fantasy.
For Gods sake people just how much more proof do you need that our country
is on the path of purposeful destruction?
Service Employees International Union (SEIU), with its 2.1 million dues
paying members announced on November
16, 2011, “with great pride and a sense of purpose,” that they were
endorsing President Barack Obama for re-election.
They said “President Obama is the only
candidate for president who shares our vision of America
as a land of opportunity for everyone. We need a leader willing to fight for
the needs of the 99 percent, and stand with hard working families to say that
the world’s wealthiest corporations must pay their fair share.”
Is this the vision of socialist America
where almost 50 percent of citizens already pay no federal income tax and
receive welfare from the producers? Is this the vision where pot-smoking youth
occupy our parks demanding handouts while preaching Marxism?
Is this the vision of America where working
Americans support millions of illegal aliens who take advantage of our lax law
enforcement when foreigners cross the border illegally, drop anchor babies, use
our emergency rooms for medical care, our schools and universities for
educating their children, and take jobs from American citizens?
Obama does not fight for the needs of all Americans, he only fights for
re-election votes and his needs like golfing, vacationing, entertaining
lavishly at taxpayer expense, and non-stop campaigning.
He punishes companies that are not supporting
his plan for America
and rewards companies who have contributed heavily to his campaign coffers.
Congressman Frank Wolf remarked on the floor of the House on November 16, 2011, “General
Electric, the nation’s largest corporation, had a very good year in 2010 but GE
paid zero taxes in 2010. At the same time, the Congressional Research Service
found that the October 2008 issue of China Taxation magazine published top
corporate taxpayers in the commercial services sector. The Beijing
subsidiary of GE was number 32.”
The head of President Obama’s Council on Jobs and Competitiveness, GE
chairman, Jeffrey Immelt, announced recently that the headquarters of its
115-year old X-ray business would be moved from Wisconsin
to Beijing.
Fifty percent of GE’s workforce is overseas. A joint venture between GE and
the Chinese firm AVIC was announced to develop avionics systems for jets.
Shouldn’t the president make sure jobs are
created here rather than China?
Is it a good idea to provide the Chinese military with advanced avionics
technology at a time when they are developing aeronautics and space exploration
programs?
Is this not a national
security issue?
The SEIU memo continues, “Our economy and democracy have been taken over by
the wealthiest one percent.”
The truth
is, wealthy individuals are being threatened and blackmailed by this
administration on a daily basis. Our country has been taken over by
Marxists and anti-American individuals who goal is the failure of America
from a super-power to a third world nation.
The SEIU memo to its members says, “These bankers and CEOs have used their
wealth and excessive political influence to treat our state and federal
governments like their personal cash drawer – spending lavishly on elections
and then pressuring legislators to give them even more instead of creating
jobs. It shows the results.”
DUH!!
It was unions that spent hundreds of millions
of dollars to elect Democrats to Congress and President Obama in order to
influence the outcome of legislation favoring and benefiting unions?
And it was ACORN protesting outside the homes of bankers and CEOs with the
intent of shaming them into giving mortgage loans to people with shady credit
scores?
And it was Democrats in Congress
that were urging bankers to make these loans?
This move is what exacerbated the housing
bubble crisis?
The reasons corporations are not creating jobs is not that complicated.
It’s because they are overregulated, the EPA
is denying permits, business confidence under this administration is at its
lowest ever, and corporations are afraid to hire because of the uncertainty of
taxation and the foreseen high cost of Obamacare per employee.
SEIU’s president says, “We know there needs to be a pathway to citizenship
for every immigrant worker.”
Translation; The left wants amnesty for
illegal aliens because they want new cardholders paying dues to unions and new
automatic Democrat voters.
It does not
matter to liberals that these illegal aliens are taking jobs away from
Americans, and they don’t care that the majority of Americans do not want
amnesty.
Our President has had three years, a few billion dollars job stimulus money,
and many opportunities to create jobs.
It
should be obvious to anyone not totally brain dead that it was never his intent
to create jobs – he likes people being dependent on the government dole.
People
who cannot find jobs, especially young people with college degrees, have nobody
to blame but themselves for voting for Obama in 2008 and in many cases by
choosing unmarketable degrees.
No matter how many times Obama repeats his canned rhetoric, none of his
plans, schemes, bailouts, stimulus have worked, none of them. He will not turn
things around because even if he intended to, he does not know how.
I have become convinced he never had any intention
of doing so.
If he is re-elected, the economy will take an
irreversible slide into bankruptcy.
We
will become the banana republic he planned to “fundamentally transform” us into
all along.
If you haven’t been reading my blog posts, don’t stop with just this
one.
Go right down the list and read
eight or ten of them.
I think you will
find them to be very informative.
I do a
lot of research for the information I post on this blog.
