Barack Obama: The Great Jobs Killer

by Wayne Allyn Root - July 4th, 2010 - Las Vegas Review Journal

Obama is as hopeless, helpless, clueless and bankrupt of good ideas as the manager of the Chicago Cubs in late September. This "community organizer" knows as much about private-sector jobs as Pamela Anderson knows about nuclear physics.

It's time to call Obama what he is: The Great Jobs Killer. With his massive spending and tax hikes -- rewarding big government and big unions, while punishing taxpayers and business owners -- Obama has killed jobs, he has killed motivation to create new jobs, he has killed the motivation to invest in new businesses, or expand old ones. With all this killing, Obama should be given the top spot on the FBI's Most Wanted List.

This is becoming more and more the litany of those who actually know something about economics and fiscal policy. Wayne Allyn Root is a libertarian. He is thus someone who was as opposed to the big government giveaways and stimulus programs of the Bush regime as he is with Barack Obama and the socialist regime he has installed to replace Bush's hypothetically superior "efficient" big government promoted under the label "compassionate conservative".

Wayne is right about Obama just as he was right about Bush. Our current economic and fiscal policies are totally insane.

This is an excellent example of the growing number of articles that point out just how incompetent Obama and his socialist minions are at dealing with the economic mess that Bush and the Democrat Congress started to create between 2006 and 2008. Obama came in to office and simply doubled down on the stupidity of those two years and has made it much worse. Obama even implemented vastly greater deficits after having had the arrogance to criticize Bush for his deficits.

Obama cannot fix the problem. He is too beholden to the corrupt unions and big government workers who continue to live high on the hog while the nation slides into depression.
