With Obama being more concerned about campaigning to get reelected than doing something to improve the economy, it’s hard to find cheerful news. Obama knows that the way to heal the economy is to reduce taxes and government regulations to help businesses prosper and grow, but he can’t force himself to do it. He is so deeply rooted in his socialist doctrine that he refuses to take the proven actions to get us out of this economic mess.
He would rather waste billions of your tax dollars trying to force “green” businesses to success while killing jobs than do anything to help the private sector that he has openly called his enemy. The Solyndra scandal was so foolish that it wasted $530 million of your tax money and is currently under investigation by Congress and the FBI. Unfortunately, it seems Solyndra is only the tip of a very expensive iceberg involving crony politics.
On the brighter side, these events have been so blatant that the public and even some Democrats are realizing just how destructive Obama’s actions are. A number of the GOP presidential candidates are very successful business people who actually know how to create jobs and grow the economy. If we can just last for 13 months until the next election, we can put someone in the White House who has real experience in creating jobs, not just failing socialist theories.
Obama has just made a speech and said GOP policies would “cripple America” but I believe the facts show that is exactly what he has done since he was elected. A September 26 Gallup Poll shows that 81% of Americans are now dissatisfied with government and feel that it is currently harmful.
On the downside, we still have to endure Obama for another year but on the bright side we really do have a choice to rebuild our economy in the 2012 election. It will be a painful year ahead but at least there really is hope for restoring our economy coming soon.
