Is there any doubt among voters what they will get with Barack Obama? He is a late 1960's early 1970's radical with a good haircut and a nice suit. Underneath the wrappings, he is as left wing as politicians come. He will tax achievement, he will depend on words and process to solve problems, he will send us chasing our tails in search of the panacea for global warming.
I guess that is okay with everyone, because it looks like Obama will be the next president with a filibuster proof majority in congress. Okay, Barack, here are the keys to the world's biggest and most productive economy. Here are the reigns to the most dominant military force the world has ever known. Here is the presidency of the world's only super power, let's see that you and your pals in congress can do with it. So what do we know Obama will do? Let's kick off a list:
Well, first off, we know he is going to tax anything that is profitable. Anyone making over $ 250K is rich and apparently needs to give more of their earned money to others who have not earned as much. Oil companies need to be taxed for their "windfall profits". I guess Obama doesn't understand that running a business where profits soar in response to increased volumes of business is really not a windfall, but rather income from operations, so I am not so sure I buy into Obama's definition, but oil companies will pay up, big time. Obama will increase or lift the limit on social security taxes, but then he will give money back to those who are not "rich"...and keep the money of those who are. So we know on thing for sure. Obama and his demmy friends in congress will tax the crap out of achievement...the thing that really makes our system better than everyone else. So we can conclude that there will be less achievement, less income to tax, and less profits to tax. I know I will have less income with Obama's plans. I may have to take my kids out of their current schools because money I earned is being directed to someone else who did not work as hard as I did, is not as smart as I am, or is not as effective in creating value that the market demands. Sounds like a great deal for whoever gets my income, but not for me and I will adjust my behavior accordingly.
We also know that Obama will not drill for new sources of oil. He will not support drilling off the coast, he will not support drilling in the wastelands of ANWR. He will not support more oil refining capacity and he will not support rapid expansion of nuclear power generation. Lastly Obama certainly will not allow exploitation of our massive coal and shale reserves. Instead, Obama is going to invest in green technology and green jobs. He is going to strongly support conservation and cap greenhouse gases. No polar bear will drown under the Obama administration, no matter how much it costs us in productivity, higher energy costs, or lost competitiveness in the world economy. We can take that to the bank, or at least we can feel good while we are counting the money we used to have.
Obama is going to meet with and negotiate with terrorist regimes who despise all Americans including Obama - though I am sure they find him much more useful than say general Patreas or any other member of our armed forces. Obama apparently has a plan for negotiation that no one has ever considered and is keeping it a secret until after the election. Obama has a panacea for world hand-holding efforts that he is going to implement for global peace. I think it will kick in right after Hugo Chavez stops laughing so hard his head explodes after "negotiations" with the world's most naive Commander in Chief.
Obama is also going to get us out of Iraq, and the sooner the better. I know when I am on the 10 yard line getting ready to score a touchdown, I usually like to punt the ball to my opponent rather than stuff the ball down their throats. Liberals are not hung up on this winning thing. As the Leading Liberal-in-charge, Obama does not want to send the wrong message to the world by winning in Iraq. Let's pull out so the citizens who supported us (again) can get gassed and have their heads chopped off by a formerly defeated al Queada on theJihadist.com.
So far everything sounds great right? Anyone see a recession in that strategy? I know I do, maybe even worse. I am not sure which of Barack's policies will have the devastating effect of on our economy as we saw with Smoot-Hawley, but he has it in there, the challenge is deciding which suicidal economic policy will send us over the economic cliff. When we get there, and my former business has been ruined by high taxes, government mandates for healthcare benefits, sky rocketing energy costs, I am going to sit back and rake in the benefits and dollars that Barack has in store for the new-poor. The only problem with this plan, is that there won't be any dollars, because no one earned them. The cost to do business was too high, so as a rational consumer, the former achievers in this country said "fuck-it", Obama wants to give me a hand up, I am going to take it...and I'll take mine now.
Any one see the problem yet? This left wing radical will put this economy on the road to ruin by essentially letting people vote to take wealth from someone else and give it to themselves. He is going to be the source of $ 10/gallon gasoline. He is going to withdraw US forces from conflicts around the world where we are currently fighting and winning, making the heretofore ultimate foreign policy sissy, Jimmy Carter look like a George Patton.
This guy is a train wreck and we are getting ready to let him have the controls. Get ready for a ride to economic oblivion and all the fun that goes along with it. At least we won't be putting much CO2 into the air, because our economy will be flat on its back. The Chinese and Indians will more than pick up the slack for carbon-based emissions, so no worries there. I think they will also be laughing an slapping their knees, thanking their lucky stars that we were pompous enough and dumb enough to elect the most incompetent president in modern times.
For those ready to vote for Obama, have fun spending my earnings while you can. You are going to need them to put a gallon of gas in your car or pay your power bill. But don't get used to spending my money, because it won't be there for long. Obama wants us all to be equal no matter what. After all, he wants to reward work not wealth. What 1960's radicals don't understand is that if we follow their plans, we won't have either. If I don't get the wealth that is a result of my work, why would I do it? Call me self-serving, but I can do a lot more good bringing value to the market, building wealth that I can dispose of as I see fit instead of working my ass off so some clown in Washington to build a bridge to no-where. Seeing the problem yet? I am guessing not. Thanks a-lot in advance Obama supporters, you ruined the economy, turned and ran on those who depended on us abroad, and have kept our arctic wasteland intact while keeping us dependant on foreign sources of energy. You have made the people who detest us and want to kill each and every one of us wealthy beyond their wildest dreams, and have given them the lubricant to get their killing machine started. If this is what you really wanted, this is what you will get. Don't come crying to me when the shit hits that fan, because all you are going to get from me is a big fat "I told you so and where is my government check". I am good at what
I set my mind to do, so if we are all going to feed at the government trough, I am going to be a hog in the land of the oinkers. You have been warned.
