An Obama Economics Primer

President Obama decided he would have a surprise town hall meeting in the sleepy little community of Cackti, Texas. He sent David Axlerod to check out the place and make arrangements for getting some “shovel-ready” projects on the front burner. Mr. Axlerod drove around the dusty deserted streets until he found the towns only hotel. Upon entering the lobby, he informed the owner that the President was coming to town and would require 15 rooms for three days. The owner, Mr. Jones said that he only had 15 rooms and that they would have to be fully paid in advance or else he could not afford to hold them. After all, you never new how many people might get off the 5:00 bus to take a breather and stay overnight. Mr. Axlerod placed a $100.00 bill on the counter and told Mr. Jones to hold the rooms for 20 minutes while he inspected the rooms and made sure they were acceptable. As soon as the President's man was upstairs, Mr. Jones snatched the bill and raced next door to pay his debt to the town butcher. The butcher drove to the edge of town and paid 100 dollars to the pig farmer. The pig farmer takes the $100.00 and runs it over to the Farmer’s Co-Op to pay towards his feed account. The guy at the Co-Op take the hundred dollars and hands it off to EllyMae the local prostitute who has had to start performing services on credit as times in Cacti are so bad. EllyMae races down the street and slaps the $100.00 bill on the hotel counter, paying towards her room charges. The proprietor nudges the bill back in its original place just as David Axlerod comes down the stairs, snaps the bill off the counter and storms out the door mumbling something about “I wouldn’t let an north Alabama hillbilly stay in this pigsty”! This is the Obama Stimulus Plan in a nutshell. It all looks good on paper, but where was the benefit? Did anyone really earn anything? Is anyone really better off? It’s a nifty little slight of hand trick and nothing more. Repairing pot holes in roads is not going to do anything for the economy. I heard it said yesterday, that these new ‘shovel-ready’ projects were going to be the greatest economic boom since the Eisenhower Interstate System. Building the road system certainly put a lot of people to work and was good for the economy. But, that was all paid for with taxpayer dollars. The real jump in the economy and the sharp upward spike in GNP, and creation of jobs came from that man who decided to put a Waffle House at every interchange in America. It came from the private businessmen who built the Holiday Inn’s, the restaurants and service stations, it all came from private investor’s putting there money and faith in good business practices. It came from common sense and sound capitalism. Wake up Mr. Obama, socialism and communism have never worked - Never!. Sooner or later you just run out of other people’s money. If you keep robbing Peter to pay Paul, one day Peter will catch up to you and break your legs.

Washington’s Pied Piper….

There was a Pied Piper who said We live in the greatest country in the world.
Help me change it!
*And the people said, Change is good!
Then he said, We are going to tax the rich fat-cats,
and redistribute their wealth
*And the people said, "Sock it to them!"
And then he said, Redistribution of wealth is good for everybody
*And Joe the plumber said, "Are you kidding me?"
And Joe's personal records were hacked and publicized.
*And one lone reporter asked, "Isn't that Marxist policy?"
And she was banished from the kingdom!
Then someone asked, "With no foreign relations experience, how will you deal with radical terrorists?"
And the Pied Piper said, Simple. I'll sit down and talk with them and show them how nice we really are and they'll forget that they ever wanted to kill us all!
Then the Pied Piper said, I'll give 95% of you lower taxes.
*And one, lone voice said, "But 40% of us don't pay ANY taxes!"
So the Pied Piper said, Then I'll give you some of the taxes the fat-cats pay!
*And the people said, "Show me the money!"
Then the Pied Piper said, I'll tax your Capital Gains when you sell your homes!
*And the people yawned and the slumping housing market collapsed.
And he said, I'll mandate employer- funded health care for EVERY worker and raise the minimum wage.
*And the people said, "Gimme some of that!"
Then he said, I'll penalize employers who ship jobs overseas.
*And the people said, "Where's my rebate check?"
Then the Pied Piper actually said, I'll bankrupt the coal industry and electricity rates will skyrocket!
*And the people said, "Coal is dirty, coal is evil, no more coal! But we don't care for that part about higher electric rates."
So the Pied Piper said, Not to worry. If your rebate isn't enough to cover your expenses, we'll bail you out. Just sign up with ACORN and your troubles are over! Then he said, illegal immigrants feel scorned and slighted. Let's grant them amnesty, Social Security, free education, free lunches, free medical care, bi-lingual signs and guaranteed housing
*And the people said, "Ole`! Bravo!" And they made him King!
And so it came to pass that employers, facing spiraling costs and ever-higher taxes, raised their prices and laid off workers. Others simply gave up and went out of business and the economy slowed even further. Then the Pied Piper said, I'm here to save you! We'll just print more money so everyone will have enough! But our foreign trading partners said, Wait a minute. Your dollar isn't worth what it was. You'll have to pay more.
*And the people said, "Wait a minute. That's not fair!"
And the world said, Neither are these other, idiotic programs you've embraced. You've become a Socialist state and a second-rate power. Now you'll play by our rules!
*And the people said, "What have we done?"

But alas, it was too late….

If you think this is a fairy tale, open your eyes and ears. It's happening RIGHT NOW!

Obama Flubs Teleprompter

Obama Flubs Teleprompter

Tuesday, April 28, 2009 1:20 PM By: Dan Weil

President Obama had a little mix-up with his teleprompter at a speech Monday. In an address to the National Academy of Sciences, Obama announced the formation of a President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology. But shortly after specifying who will be on the new council, he started to introduce the names again. His teleprompter was at the wrong place. Obama looked at his machine and asked for help. Here’s what he said: “In addition to John – sorry, the – I just noticed I jumped the gun here,” Obama said and then paused several seconds, looking at the teleprompter. “Go ahead. Move it up. I had already introduced all you guys,” he said, apparently to the prompter’s operator. The audience reacted with a quiet laugh.

Is Obama the Reincarnation of Abe Lincoln?

“So, I’m prowling around the corridors, when I hear this voice coming from my bedroom. It was Obama preying quietly”.
“Oh Abe, what should I do? Nancy has all the republicans lined up against me, Hillary has the entire Muslim world up in arms, and the economy is getting worse every day. What do I do Abe, please guide me”.
"I leaned in real close to the air vent and I said in a creepy, raspy voice":
“Son, I know Abe Lincoln very well, Abe's a friend of mine, and let’s face it”.

“Barak, you ain’t no Abe Lincoln”!

Obama orders cuts by Cabinet

Boston Globe - ?5 hours ago? AP And Globe Staff / April 21, 2009 Convening his first Cabinet meeting yesterday, President Obama ordered his agency chiefs to join many American families in penny-pinching, but acknowledged that slicing at least $100 million in administrative costs ...

President Obama has asked his cabinet to come up with 100 million in savings over a 90 day period. This sure sounds good on the surface, until you realize our budget is running around 200 billion per month or 600 billion in 90 days. If this is broken down to be understandable to most of us, it looks like this: 600,000,000,000/100,000,000 To put it another way it amounts to one dollar in savings for every six thousand spent.
Wow, I feel better already!
President Obama promised the country a sharp knife in dealing with the budget, but it seems like he got the butter knife out instead.
"To put those numbers in perspective, imagine that the head of a household with annual spending of $100,000 called everyone in the family together to deal with a $34,000 budget shortfall," Harvard University economist N. Greg Mankiw, a Bush administration official, wrote on his blog. "How much would he or she announce that spending [be] cut? By $3 over the course of the year -- approximately the cost of one latte at Starbucks. The other $33,997? We can put that on the family credit card and worry about it next year."

I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the
government from wasting the labors of the people under
the pretense of taking care of them.
