Is America Waking Up? – President Obama’s Approval Rating is Dropping
Another Rasmussen Report came out yesterday showing Obama’s approval rating at the lowest of his short career… It appears that America is beginning to see what the conservatives have seen all along. (That Obama is a Big Government far left liberal, and is leading the country straight towards a socialist America.)
Specifically, I believe there are 2 reasons for this drop, that I would like to point out below. (I’m sure there are others, but these are the biggest in my mind)
Unemployment
Nothing wakes up the American people like unemployment. The massive Democrat stimulus plan ($787 billion) that was pushed by President Obama has fallen on its face. I ask, where are the jobs?…
The major problem is that the stimulus was never directed at the private sector, but was only a stimulus for liberal special interests… It is no surprise that it has failed and will continue to fail. (Any thinking American could see it!) You can’t stimulate the economy by giving taxpayer property to left wing special interest groups! It was a massive power grab at the expense of our children’s prosperity, plain and simple.
The principle problem with any government spending bill has always been the premise that government can create jobs and wealth. This is 100% false, and is a lie the government loves to tell the American people. (As if government knows better than you on how to spend your money and property) Only the private sector can create a producing job and therefore create wealth. The government can only reduce productively and wealth, and this rule trends in proportion to it’s size…. The smaller the government, the more productive the people can be. The larger the government, the less productive the people can be. This is because government interferes with productivity, and restrains wealth creation through its financial and regulatory burden… Is it any wonder why America has grown into an economic powerhouse in so short of time? Duh!, it is because it was based on limited constitutional government. The recipe for prosperity!
Unemployment may stop increasing and level off at 10%, but it will not drop until the federal government puts the breaks on spending and government expansion. Just watch and see, as long as more government programs are being created by the Democrats, the unemployment numbers will continue to increase or level off, but they will not drop.
Cap & Trade, a.k.a. Cap & Poverty
President Obama is strongly behind the Democrat plan called Cap & Trade. Essentially it is a plan to tax any business that pollutes above a certain government set rate. If a business falls below this rate, it can then get credits from the government and sell these credits to other businesses that fall above the government set rate. (If warning bells are going off in your head, than you can see that massive dangers ahead.)
It’s clear from many reports that Cap & Poverty will be a disaster for the economy. Essentially it will send manufacturing jobs overseas, will cause businesses to reduce their payroll, and will increase the costs of energy to every American. But even worse in my mind, is that government will have more control over the private sector and our economy. This always causes unforeseen consequences that will damage the American people, their freedom, and their prosperity.
Obama’s Approval Rating will Tank
I believe President Obama’s approval rating will tank as he continues his path towards collectivism and socialism. The American people understand that it is freedom that made this country great, and only freedom will cause it to prosper. May freedom expand in this country again.
