The Demonization of American Business

Socialist President Obama is reaching out to American business now that he is running for re-election; but it is a phony ploy to raise money and nothing more. During the last two years Obama and the Socialists in Congress have demonized the Banking, Mortgage, Healthcare, Pharmaceutical, Oil, Nuclear and Coal industries in order to pass Socialist legislation and gain more government control over the economy and our lives. Socialists have ignored the fact that these industries create millions of good paying jobs in the United States and that both these companies and their employees pay billions in federal, state and local taxes. Further, all of these companies and many of their employees support numerous charities, the arts, education and many other good causes to enrich our society.

Socialists always attempt to divide the American people to gain and retain power because otherwise they have no message. However, great Presidents bring people together rather than divide them. Abraham Lincoln once said that "a nation divided against itself shall not stand." We have big problems in this country that will not be solved by Obama, a left wing President, who is the most polarizing in American history.

The Socialist so called populist, left wing appeal is always focused on portraying companies and people, that oppose their Socialist Schemes as racist, greedy and evil. This tactic started with Woodrow Wilson and was continued by Franklin Roosevelt. Obama is following the same playbook. For the past 30 years, this blogger has worked with many of these demonized companies and their employees and I have not seen anyone, or anything that would substantiate the Socialist negative characterization of these industries, or their employees.

Yes, there are a few bad apples in every industry and some of them are crooks that should be in jail just like politicians who have stolen the Social Security Trust Fund to buy elections; but the people I have encountered in American business at every level have been hard working, ethical, upstanding members of their communities. And, the last time I read the Constitution, there is no law against making a profit, or a lot of money. In fact, profit is necessary to make new investments that create jobs. And, there are no taxes paid unless there is profit. Further, it is the rich that grow businesses that create jobs and who give to charities, the arts, education and many other worthy causes. I don't think a poor man has ever created a job except for government jobs that enslave the poor and result in their continued dependence on government.

Socialist President Obama will say or do anything to win re-election, which is the reason he is attempting to make nice with business. The President has been advised by his Consultants that he is too left wing to win re-election so he will play down his Socialist Schemes; but we should look at his appointments and those in his cabinets in addition to the actions of his administration through Executive Order to fully understand that Obama is a die hard Socialist, through and through, who hates capitalism and American business. You can change the stripes on a Zebra; but it will still be a Zebra.

We need to make Obama a one term President and take control of the US Senate in 2012 to prevent the bankruptcy of the United States. We can do it. We must do it to preserve our freedom, our nation and way of life for the sake of our children and grandchildren.
