Big Business secretly LOVES OBAMA!

Here’s reality:

Profits have surged 62% from the start of 2009 to mid-2010, according to the Commerce Department. That is faster than any other year and a half in the ’50s, the ’60s or the booms under Ronald Reagan and Clinton.

By comparison, it took GW Bush 4 years to equal the gains Obama has posted in a year and a half.

philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

Sure, because they've all moved their money out of the US.

When millions of people get cut from the payroll, you can grow your profit margins.  Profits don't equal economic growth.  Still a lot of unemployed Americans.  If businesses cut more labor or employee cheaper labor, there profits can grow even larger.  Not good.

Less Americans were out of work under Reagan, Clinton, and GWB.  You tell me if unemployed Americans give a rats a** under which President businesses had the largest profits.  Not good for Obama.  Very bad statistic for Obama.

Did Reagan triple the national debt in his first 18 months with promises of reducing unemployment?

In the 12 years of Reagan/Bush, the national debt went from 1 trillion dollars for all previous presidents combined, to 3 trillion dollars.   Before Reagan, Conservatives were proud of their "Fiscal Conservative" heritage.  Reagan promised in '80 that he'd balance the budget by '84... he never came close.  Unemployment under Reagan reached 10%.

Since Reagan's "trickle down, voodoo" economics, the Republicans abandoned their traditional fiscal frugality and turned into the party of Borrow & Spend.

The economic success of the Clinton years were also matched by balanced budgets for 6 of his 8 years, and Clinton left office with a surplus.

If Barack Obama can get us back to where the economy was when GWB took office, his presidency will be considered a success.

Who ran the congress that originated all those spending bill during those Reagan years? Did they give him the line-item veto? why did the communist party (democraps) oppose him having the line item veto? in today's dollars what are the three million equivalent to? During Clinton, what party controlled congress and why did Clinton move so far to the right? You know the facts but prefer to lie, Box. You are a liar.

As to Big Business? They LOVE Obama. I agree. Small business on the other hand lives in dread of socialism and communism as dictated by the current democrap party. All those rules, regs and taxes destroy the small business fiber of America and it is only big business that has the war chest to deal with that crap. Walmart and Target can afford to do whatever the feds tell them. John Q. Public on Main Street often goes bankrupt trying to satisfy the tyrannical demands of the evil big government bullies and their agencies.


"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."

the sad part is that we have conversations about "the party did this. they didn't do that"....when in reality we need both parties to STOP meeting our
needs and STOP selling wants...........

the bottom line is that we have allowed the government to be our caretakers of sorts.....if you want care taking---GO TO SOME CHURCH....

separate them.....there IS  a difference


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.


STOP BEING GOOD DEMOCRATS---STOP BEING GOOD REPUBLICANS--START BEING GOOD AMERICANS
