How Obama’s Economic Plan and George Washington’s Death Are Linked
When our first President, George Washington, was dying, his doctor practiced what the medical community called bleeding. This practice was an accepted medical procedure at the time, and it called for the opening of a blood vessel and draining some of the “bad blood” from the patient. Bleeding President Washington certainly did not improve his health and it ultimately accelerated or even led to his demise.
Barack Obama’s economic plan that calls for “bleeding” our small businesses and the corporations that provide jobs is like that ancient medical procedure. We know better now. How in the world do you expect the middle class citizens to rave over tax cuts if they are losing their jobs. What good is a tax cut if your employer gives you a pink slip. All over our nation the economic well being for our people ultimately rests on the ability of our infrastructure to provide good paying, long enduring jobs. Obama has never run a business for a profit. Jobs come from making profits and reinvesting those profits into growth. Jobs come from well run businesses. Taxing our businesses will force employers to cut jobs or worse, to seek better opportunities overseas.
Senator Obama, stop the bleeding nonsense. Grow America’s economic capacity, keep Senator Obama away from executive power until he understands basic economics. President Washington was sick and he underwent a medical procedure that made him worse. Our economy is sick, it does not need to be bled by Obama like a nightmare vampire. We need John McCain who understands that the vibrant job producing economic recovery will be led by the robust small businesses across America.
