What Happens When You Put A Community Organizer In Charge Of The US Economy?
Experience as a community organizer could get you a job as a used car salesman, but it certainly does not teach you how to turn around the largest economy in the world, and obviously this is being born out. Amazing to think we where we could be with someone who actually knew what the hell was going on.
The Heritage Foundation’s chief economist, Stephen Moore, writing on May 1st in the National Review, asked, “What happens to an economy when you do just about everything wrong?” Here’s his list:
# Say you spend $830 billion on a stimulus stuffed with make-work government-jobs programs and programs to pay people to buy new cars,
# you borrow $6 trillion,
# you launch a government-run healthcare system that incentivizes businesses not to hire more workers,
# you raise tax rates on the businesses that hire workers and on the investors that invest in the businesses that hire workers,
# you print $3 trillion of paper money,
# you shut down an entire industry (coal), and try to regulate and restrain the one industry that actually is booming (oil and gas).
“We made all of these imbecilic moves,” wrote Moore, “and the wonder of it all is that the U.S. economy is growing at all. It is a tribute to the indestructible Energizer Bunny that is the entrepreneurial U.S. economy that it keeps going and going even with all the obstacles.” I want to argue with his use of “we”, but enough Americans elected Obama twice to justify it.
You don’t have to be an economist to know the truth that has finally sunk into the minds of millions of Americans, many of whom are unemployed or know someone who is. Obama has driven the economy into the toilet. He has foisted trillions of debt on future generations. In order to vote for “the first black President of America”, what those voters and the rest of us got was a man with no experience running so much as a sidewalk lemonade stand.Keep reading

That title should be massaged to say:
“What Happens When his brothers and sisters Ghetto Rats and Hollywood Libtards Put A Community Organizer In Charge Of The US Economy”
Toejam – I think the author really did want to blame a certain group, but I think he is offended the GOP let it happen twice.
The Dumbocrats and their uninformed voters put a community organizer in charge of the country (twice!) and look how that major fuck-up turned out.
We now know the 2nd American Revolution is inevitable, where can one join a local militia?
Happi – Prepare, that’s all I can say.
