Raise taxes, raise business restrictions, raise government handouts, raise employers’ liabilities, and watch a country already in trouble go downhill fast.
Of course, President Obama will try to blame any deep spiral into an economic abyss (and everything else) on the current situation, and his lackeys will nod thier heads “yup, yup, yup” and believe it. But this economy, as bad as it is, could be corrected--so when the ride comes, don’t believe the blind donkeys in charge. Plausible deniability is Barack Obama’s middle name, and he’ll try to blame his failure on everyone else.
So here’s the rallying cry he needs to hear on Inauguration Day:
NO EXCUSES!
Hey Obama! It’s your economy NOW–fix it! No excuses!
NO EXCUSES!
And when he says he can’t, remind him he also said, “Yes We Can.”
When the economy tanks (and we have a loooooooooong way to go before we even start to see bottom) and the Obamorons surrounding me start bitching about "It's all Bush's fault" my standard answer shall be - well, President Hope-n-change was gonna fix it all with puppy kisses and unicorn poop - so, how's that working out?
I saw there's a poll out there pushing the notion that 3/4 of Americans expect Obama to fix the economy. My guess is that, in related news a whole boatload of people are soon going to be very, very disappointed.
