Obama economy: White House turns to small-scale solutions.
Examples include more spending on high-speed rail, roads and bridges; improvements to the patent system; free-trade agreements; and extending a one-year payroll tax cut that is expected to provide an average benefit of $695 per worker.
Isn’t that what Michelle spends on her fancy shiteous looking tennis shoes and some tamales? Remember, you only get the cash if you are a worker.
Ahhh heck, that Barack sure is generous, isn’t he? Too bad no one wants to tell him that his “experience” as a community organizer is a complete failure. I have to wonder what he believes the word “leader” to mean? I’m perplexed.

These so-called debt talks are nothing more than theatrics. There these people are pretending to be arguing over something that has fundamentally already been settled. The country has been raped and pillaged by the global banking cartels and left for dead. Basically, at this point it’s a choice between even less than everyone had before and working harder to pay for the national debt. Why don’t they just tell the truth and say, hey, we let the banks get away with all of this, and basically we’re powerless to do anything about it because we don’t really run the place any more…

If anything it buys votes from those that don’t know what is really going on.

“Why don’t they just tell the truth and say, hey, we let the banks get away with all of this, and basically we’re powerless to do anything about it because we don’t really run the place any more…”
The banksterists are nothing without their public-and-private-but-always-publicly-funded armies. Without those, the serfs might decide to send them off for a visit with the physician for all diseases and miseries. The government is merely liaison between the 2 and additionally runs disinformation and tax collection services.

Apparently, they think “we can’t handle the truth”. Whats to handle? Those that are informed already know it! Those that are delusional, refuse to believe it.
We are soooooooooo screwed…

Yes Psstt.

I’m perplexed.
Dear Perplexed,
Maybe it will help if you know that “community organizer” is a euphemism for “commie rabble-rousing trash talker.”
July 10, 2011 at 7:50 pm
Mary I equate community organizer with entitlement chief of many who refuse to do anything without being herded.

That, too, McN.

$695 per worker. That’s what Obama said in his news conference would help the economy. (although he said the amount was $1000)
Remember when Michelle criticized the tax rebate of $600 and said was a waste of time because it would only buy a pair of earrings?

Indeed imust. She is something else. All for her and the serfs can eat her sneakers. She’s a real piece of work.

These two are impostors – they’re actors, paid for by the ones who yank their chains and lavish them with media praise, exotic vacations, leisure time out the wazoo, money … even the dadgum Nobel Prize for God’s sakes. Whadda joke that turned out to be.
Their job is simple. To lob distractions at the public, while the status quo remains firmly in place. And boy has it ever – this time with a vengeance…

Yes imust, that is a wonderful reminder of what money means to these people.

Inject more sugar into the diabetic please Obama!
Er… I mean money for the wasteful……
“The Sugar Daddy has hypoglycemia?”
“Margaret Thatcher distilled all the problems of central planning into this one quote*: “Socialist governments traditionally do make a financial mess. They always run out of other people’s money.” Last night, Sarah Palin gave us a new version of the argument, saying that the sugar-daddy government — and President — has run out of sugar, and we need to cut off the supply of sucrose:
To paraphrase Hemingway, people go broke slowly and then all at once. We’ve been slowly going broke for years, but now it’s happening all at once as the world’s capital markets are demanding action from us, yet Obama assumes we’ll just go borrow another cup of sugar from some increasingly impatient neighbor. We cannot knock on anyone’s door anymore. And we don’t have any time to wait for Washington to start behaving responsibly. We’ll be Greece before these D.C. politicians’ false promises are over. We must force government to live within its means, just as every business and household does…..

Buttered, the analogy is very good. Sugar pleasing until you try to do something worthwhile.

Expensive projects like high speed rail that are never used but by a fraction of those who must pay for them are a money loser, not a money maker. For everyone employed, there are more who went bankrupt being made to finance these boondoggles, or who had their homes and land condemned and appropriated so that the wealthy might have their toys and the politicians might prove they too can play stick-it-to-the-taxpayer with the
bestworst of them.What the fuck do they mean, “improvements to the patent system”? One imagines it’s not shortening the time for which they run, which would increase competition and lower costs of entry into various fields thereby creating jobs.
Free trade agreements cause job loss not job gain.
