The websites of Alex Jones can often be a beehive of conspiracy theories, and were the favorites of liberals who bought into the whole 9/11 Truth derangement. However, mixed between the conspiracy stories, some of which are legitimate, there are some great stories. Like this one
Have you ever heard the old saying “the beatings will continue until morale improves� According to Wikipedia, that phrase is often “used sarcastically to indicate the counterproductive nature of such punishment or excessive control over subordinates such as staff in the workplace or children living at home.†Well, apparently Barack Obama believes that the more punishment that he inflicts on the U.S. economy the more we will like him.
What other explanation is there for his insane economic policies? The truth is that Barack Obama is killing jobs in America. His regulations are absolutely crippling our businesses, he has been heavily promoting new job killing “free trade†agreements, Obamacare has the potential to be the most job killing law of all time, and he is running up debt that will crush job creation in this country for ages to come. Obama will likely go down as the most anti-business president in U.S. history. He has presided over the worst “recovery†from a recession in post-World War II history, and under his leadership a whole host of economic statistics have steadily gotten worse. The percentage of working age Americans that have jobshas not bounced back since the end of the last recession, and now the next major economic crisis is rapidly approaching.
The 10 ways are
- Blocking The Keystone Oil Pipeline
- Obamacare
- Crippling Regulations
- Taxes
- “Free Trade†Agreements
- Killing The Coal Industry On Purpose
- Wasting Money
- Barack Obama Encourages Government Dependence
- Barack Obama Has Fully Supported Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke And Actually Nominated Him For A Second Term
- The Soaring National Debt Is Killing Millions Upon Millions Of Future Jobs
I’d recommend reading the details for each one as for the rationale. You can certainly add a few, such as creating a hyper-partisan blame and slime condition on Capital Hill. But, these really are the top 10. But, I will add two more:
Executive Branch over-reach: on a constant basis we find that executive branch agencies continuously go beyond their Congressional mandates, taking power for themselves. Under Obama, we see the EPA, the BLM, and a host of other alphabet soup agencies act well beyond what their duties are without response to the legislative branch.
Creating uncertainty: Obama creates uncertainty within the private marketplace by continuously pushing policies that leave businesses wondering just what will happen. This dovetails into taxes, free trade, wasting money, regulations, and Obamacare, among others.
Don’t stop at killing coal. He is killing all energy programs. He shut down the Gulf, despite a judical order to back off. Then he and the Dems have some idiot concept of fraking. I have a well a quarter mile from my house and I use well water, no problem. Except for the money I get, what do you do with all that stuff?
Also, regulations are bad, but what is worse is that they change every day. I told my stock advisor that I was reluctant to invest as I was not sure if Obama might wake up the next day and outlaw the industry I was investing in.
The problem is not just O. It is the 50% of the US that are stupid enough to believe in him. As I see it, Bush was stupid, he just wasn’t Gore or Kerry which made him acceptable. Those supporting Bush were well balanced. But the idiots that support his fool, they are so far lacking it is amazing they can work their lungs.
Excellent points. It is that failure of confidence that is one of the worst thing that stops job creation.
Thanks for this important post. I linked to you here: http://bobagard.blogspot.com/2012/07/ten-ways-obama-is-wrecking-economy.html
oil production has been going up not down. The reason coal production is down is because the price of natural gas is lower and more competitive. Coal is last resort energy.
No John, you are wrong. Coal is down because Obama has made a war on the issue and is shutting down electrical plants right and left. The result is a significant compromise to our electrical grid. Natural gas is down right now due to over production. I live in the middle of it and know. Oil production is up due to the efforts of Bush and group. But that has little influence on that market. That market is driven by futures. The buyers are looking at the distruction to oil production by Obama and now his war on fracking. Note that he lies about oil drilling is the gulf. He stopped that dead and will not allow it to resume. My source, my patients who are moving their rigs to Europe.

That’s funny john seeing as how coal has been our primary source of energy for many many decades. And only because of excessive regulations and red tape, no new coal power plants are allowed to be built. And people are so scared and stupid that they even vote down gas powered plants.
But, then, they don’t scream when they are forced to pay double or triple the cost for “alternative” energy creation.
Great points.
Obama is so tyrannical he believes more collectivism and federal spending on crony projects and social training programs will actually create jobs. He promotes federal jobs as a panacea for America.
I love how everyone, even Romney, is saying how Obama’s policies and efforts are failing or he is being unsuccessful…. hell people, he is very successful. What he is doing is doing exactly what he wants.
It’s time to start pointing this out. Obama is not FOR this country and he is not trying to save it.
