Dear Fellow American Citizens:
President Barack Obama and his Democrat party colleagues in Congress owe an apology to each and every Citizen who is unable to find work or whom is working below his/her capabilities.
For in your hour of need, this Administration and Congressional Democrats are actively working against you, perhaps unwittingly, but nonetheless with devastating consequences.
Barack Obama has never had to meet a payroll in his life. He simply does not understand, or respect, the fundamentals of free enterprise.
Even worse, Obama’s arrogance and hostility toward U.S. private enterprise is unprecedented in U.S. history.
This president, as well as most Democrats, believes that government creates good-paying, secure jobs. The fact is that private enterprise, and only private enterprise, can create job opportunities.
Barack Obama’s old-school liberalism has driven him to wage war against the very people who could, if not hindered by taxes and excessive regulation, create the high-paying jobs that every talented and ambitious American citizen deserves.
His non-stop rants against business and the Chamber of Commerce, in conjunction with his refusal to curb spending and face America’s debt crisis, are major reasons why business owners are reluctant to take risk and invest in new employees.
Barack Obama simply does not get it when it comes to business. In his warped way of thinking, business is bad, while greedy, corrupt labor unions are fine.
In Obama’s madness, the profit motive is always suspect. He apparently believes that government has a duty to use the tax code to “level the playing field” as it were, and to take from the “rich” in order to enrich the poor.
Barack Obama refuses to admit that government can best help the economy and the jobs situation by simply getting the hell out of the way and letting the barons of profit go to work!
Another example of Obama’s betrayal of American workers concerns his obsession on behalf of illegal aliens. Given his choice, Obama would grant amnesty to 12-20 million illegal aliens, with little or no regard for how that might impact American citizens struggling with employment issues.
Building the base of the Democrat Party by pandering to invaders who should not even be here is more important to Barack Obama than advocating of behalf of American citizens!
In 2009, Barack Obama saddled the American people with a “stimulus bill,” which cost nearly 1 trillion dollars. At the time that he signed the bill, President Obama promised that this bill would create or save 3-4 million American jobs.
Obama was so convinced that the stimulus was the right thing to do that he and fellow Democrats shoved the bill through will little or no debate. According to Obama, the economic crisis was too urgent to waste time on debate.
Three plus later, unemployment is still over 9 percent and the economy appears to be going from bad to worse, due in part to foolish spending like the stimulus bill.
Now, Obama declares that, “Recovery will take more time,” as the American people grow more and more frustrated with his failed economic policies.
Perhaps if he had taken an appropriate amount of time in 2009, America could have solved the vexing unemployment problem long ago.
Again, Barack Obama has been a full-time enemy of the under and unemployed American citizen.
His tenure must end in 2012—for your sake and that of the nation as a whole!
