Finally, the election is over. The nation has spoken, the progressive agenda now has the stamp of approval by at least 50 percent of Americans, or so we are being told. Now Republicans, the time has come for you to shut up and get the hell out of Obama’s way. Everyone know the President has submitted a plan to congress that would create millions of jobs, putting us on the road to a balanced budget, all the while saving Medicare and social security. The last year and a half, Obama has told anyone who would listen that his plan would have worked if it wasn’t blocked by the House Republicans, the same budget that didn’t receive a single vote from Democrats either. I am afraid the only people that don’t believe that are the new 47% “the people who voted for Romney”.
One day after the election, hundreds of businesses large and small announced countless layoffs. Those evil corporations were called unpatriotic by liberal pundits. Why did they wait till after the election to announce these layoffs, if they wanted to hurt the president they should have done it before the election I was told by a really smart talking head? Well you don’t have to have a Harvard business degree to answer that question. With an unpopular president presiding over a failed economy, and a candidate with a serious plan to curb spending, lessen the regulations killing business there was a sense of hope. Well now nothing has changed, the same problems exist with zero chance of being resolved.
Well, where to now? I heard Dana Perino of Fox News and former Bush administration spokesperson say of the looming fiscal cliff that businesses will have economic uncertainty removed if the congress and President get together on a “balance approach” to the budget. Well I couldn’t disagree more, the uncertainty has been completely removed. Most business owners are sure that taxes will be higher, energy costs will increase, and now Obama Care is now the law of the land. Nothing that comes out of the next grand bargain will help the economy grow, thus making the prospect in the near future for job growth an economic physics improbability.
