A Desperate Obama

Apparently you see the government as a good guy, the good parent willing to take care of you. If I had a small business, I cannot imagine why I would like more government control and more taxation. In the end, there is no guarantee that I will be successful. To the extent that obamacare continues to live, it is evident that insurance premiums are going to increase significantly. There is no plan for the government to cover that expense.

We all know insurance premiums hadn't increased for years, right? Annie

djbtol to begin with small business has gotten several tax breaks over the last two years. Insurance has been in failure for twenty years. The only ones that get a fair shake are government workers and large unions. The small business folks have been taking it in the shorts for years. My employee's have insurance but I do not. My personal premiums went from $280.00 a month to $1400.00 a month after a claim I had in 2004. The only claim I ever had that was beyond my deductable. I don't want a parent but I do want banks, insurance company's, investment groups and the government to follow laws that make doing business with people is not bassed on how much you can screw a customer. I see the deregulation of every industry in America over the last thirty years as a complete moral failure. We have a country that does not feel responsible to it's government or it's fellow Americans. We have a country that has no interest education, history or individual rights as intended by our forefathers. The only thing worse then a dysfunctunal government is an unbridled capitalist society. The very reason that our government is dysfunctional is because we the people have not stepped up to demand accountability.

Thanks for your reply and I agree with your assessment. The intent of globalization and multicultural diversity is a new world order, possibly controlled by the UN, but definitely not the USA. It is also amazing that not one democrat is campaigning about the success of obamacare. They know they shoved it down the throats of Americans.

Destiny007 I also agree with your assessment.

Thanks for sharing that. I do not think most Americans, including me, really understand that European democratic socialism. I do know it is not what made the United States the great country that it is.

A black republican is rare; even more rare is a black conservative. But they are out there and starting to be heard. Black Americans find themselves in a difficult spot: they know that obama is not doing the job, but yet they do not want to vote against their bro (historical bro) because then they feel like a traitor. Compromise position: stay at home.

Now I am not an American, but if I said that I was only going to vote for someone who happens to be part German, or part Austrian, or part English, or part Welsh, I would be accused of being a racist and a bigot. I cannot see why the same standards do not apply down there, that if you vote for someone because of his ethnic background and not on his policies, you would be given the same label. I do hope that there are more black conservatives out there and give people a better choice. And if they just see race and not policies, maybe they should stay home.

Just because he has not been able to do the things he set out to do, does not mean that was not his intention. The cards were all stacked in his favor, and his still failed miserably.

Although, now that I think of it, there was one commenter arguing that Obama was conservative. Maybe that is where your are going. Do you think Obama will join the TEA party? Or is it too extreme?
