Real Economics versus Phony Obama Economics

In the following Fox news interview of an accountant and a CEO of a business, a tape of Obama speaking to an audience at the White House is played a number of times.   On the first showing Obama says “raising taxes on millionaires and billionaires, using the pre-Bush tax cut rates, will raise hundreds of billions of dollars and solve the debt crisis”.  

Upon hearing this the CEO says raising taxes on those whose income is over $250,000 using pre-Bush tax cut rates would bring in only $82 billion assuming those taxed did not change their business habits after the raise; in addition some of the businesses might fail and others would not be able to hire new employees.  

Note how clever but dishonest Obama is, in saying millionaires and billionaires, surely knowing full well he is fooling people who think he means those whose income is in the millions and billions, not realizing his definition of millionaire is one with income exceeding $250,000.  Then in a matter of seconds Obama himself proves this point by saying “the 98% of taxpayers who earn less than $250,000 will not have their taxes raised at all (and he emphasizes this point).  It’s not clear if he realizes he has just in effect said that the 2% earning more than $250,000 are the millionaires and the billionaires.  But no matter, Obama must really think that a significant majority of people are dumb and won’t catch the misleading play on words.

The truth is that about 27 million small business owners who would be hit by this tax are operating on a razor thin profit margin of about 3%; Profit = (income minus expenses which can be substantial if employees are hired).  Thus, barring any kind of relief, his profit margin becomes too low to continue, leading to business failure or having to reduce the number of employees, which in turn leads to decreased production and smaller income.  Eventually a lower income may mean the businessman may not be able to pay fixed or possibly rising costs to maintain his family and the business, leading to another business failure and jobs lost by his employees.

"The Tea Party Can Go Straight to Hell"

The chair of the national Democratic party headlined a small rally in Florida a few days ago for Planned Parenthood, in what is the latest event having Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz working with the abortion business.  Schultz tweeted about the rally afterwards — providing a picture and saying she was “with Rep. Red Deutch at the Planned Parenthood rally in south Florida. We are truly fighting for women’s lives. This is personal.”

Don't be at all surprised about Debbie Wasserman Schultz chairing an event for Planned Parenthood. The Democrat Party is all about abortion; it is their means of attaining and keeping power. Since Margaret Sanger introduced the idea of ridding America of the "inferior" black race, the Democrats have rushed headlong into doing just that with the unbelievable sanctioning of the leading black politicians , who care not for their own race but care only for power, by dumbing down their own people.

Caught in a clamoring host of African Americans accusing Obama and Congresswoman Maxine Waters of not doing their jobs, she finally resorted to Democrat blame tactics.  Her outrageous outburst of  "The Tea Party Can Go Straight to Hell" distracted these poor people from the true problem of the Black Democratic Leadership selling out their own race for political gain.

These Black Democrat leaders have become the modern slave-masters of their own race, held in the new plantation bondage of welfare handouts; in union with their White, non-black Democrat Party leadership they have become the "White" racists against the Black African-American people of America. Sadly, these beautiful Black Americans, like those who had come to protest to Waters, must again be freed from bondage!  The problem is: how to get them to realize they are in bondage?

The Real Problem in America

The poignant comments on the real problem in America of a friend on another site, "Freedom Works", reveals the long-standing deterioration of the American Dream injected into Americans long ago in our Revolution.  For over a century demagogues of both political parties, but of far greater numbers within the Democrat party, have been responsible for hoodwinking our citizens into believing that government is our real god who will give us all we need.  But we have been responsible for losing our faith and trust in God and instead putting our faith and trust in flesh and blood.  The result is chaos, confusion and immorality as it always has been.

Immorality shows its most ugly head in the degradation of women.  The everyday portrayal of women as objects of sexual gratification for men has become acceptable not only by men but by women who see themselves not as victims of this degradation but as ones who now have become free to prostitute themselves if desired or feel liberated from the role of child bearing by abortion.

The seeming focus of some Conservative and Republican "thinkers" that social issues such as these abuses of women should be downplayed in the election of 2012 reveals in them a myopic view of what has gone wrong in America.  To view the crisis in America as involving primarily the economy, money, debt and finances, is to wrest defeat from victory in 2012.

Do these events, some already in operation, passed by congress or dictated by executive fiat involve pure economics?

• A panel of 12 elite people deciding who gets what medical care if any, who gets paid, and how much.
• A small business limited in what it can produce, and limited in the means and materials of production.
• A radio station is closed down because of transmission of ideas deemed undesirable for people.
• Government agencies determining where businesses may or may not locate.
• Citizens critical of government policies and politicians fined or imprisoned.
• Citizens imprisoned or fined for displaying patriotic or religious symbols anywhere.
• Property seized for political reasons without compensation.
• A citizen denied a job unless payment of union dues made.
• An agency denying water rights to farmers in order to protect fish habitats.

An analysis of the above events, all of which are happening now or have already taken place at some time, should make us realize that loss of personal freedoms under a godless society far outweighs in importance any kind of financial loss.

Without the restoration of our trust in God, putting new politicians into office to replace the old will not give us our country back unless what we desire to get back is a complete reformation of our society based on laws, policies, institutions and politicians reflecting a deep love, respect and trust in God.

America Needs a Revival

The following is a response of mine to a Pastor who is calling for the type of religious "revival" America has seen several times through it's history; The site on which this Pastor gave his recommendation is "Freedom Works" which I have very recently joined:

When I first joined this site a few days ago it seemed as though, looking at the issues list, that this was going to be strictly a political site with no room for what you are suggesting is a dire need for us to “get our country back”. We as a people are in need of a moral reformation; to just remove the bad president and legislators we have come 2012, without such a reformation, we will not accomplish what we earnestly need.

I do believe that it is the women of America who must bring about this needed reformation. The horrible degradation of women brought about by those who look upon women as mere sex objects for the gratification of men; and who think that giving women wholesale freedom to prostitute themselves as many men do is a liberating lifestyle; and who have taught women the solution to unwanted childbearing is brought about by eliminating the child, have brought about the near destruction of the family which is the fundamental social construct within any healthy society.

The abandonment of social policies and government agencies which relegate the necessity of the love of, the need for and the trust in God to a position of irrelevance is an essential task. The department of education, the EPA and a host of other departments and agencies have with their growth stymied the efforts of good people to create a good life for themselves and their families and their communities.

Only a transformation from a secular society which has been calling for the casting aside of a belief in God who alone is the proper guide for a people wanting to bring good in their families and society will bring us back to the America that has been the beacon of freedom for the entire world.

Obama is UNPATRIOTIC! Who says? He does!

You all have heard of the expression "the pot calling the kettle black" used to express someone judging another to be guilty of some wrong when that someone is guilty of the same wrong.  For the current president Obama (May the blessings of the great Oh-No be upon him in 2012) to say, while campaigning in 2008, that President Bush was "unpatriotic" for increasing the debt 4 Trillion dollars during his eight years in office, while Obama has done as much in two years in office, is in effect Obama playing the role of the black "pot", having called Bush, the black "kettle".   Both guilty, but Obama, who presumably knew better is even more guilty.  The following clip brings it out in beautiful relief:
