When "god" Speaks

Obama must really believe himself divine, his word is sacred and not to be questioned. This man, who has never been tested in any sense in his adult life, seems to think that honest differences in though are not to be discussed, especially when it differs from his own omniscience. Our earth-bound divine leader recently said "We can't expect relief from the tired old theories that, in eight short years, doubled the national debt, threw our economy into a tailspin, and led us into this mess in the first place". So honest discussion and debate about a second multibillion dollar "stimulus" package is not on the table, we are just to trust him? Right, sorry, I forgot he expects unwavering faith.

I really wonder if he even hears himself or if he thinks that whatever he says must be right? Funny, people said they hated this aspect of Bush yet here it is again (just that the leader is a "D" rather than an "R"). If Obama REALLY took his own words seriously he would think about where this money is coming from (but it's hard to expect that from someone who never really worked). If he wanted to do away with the "tired old theories" of the last eight years (of which a quarter of that lead by the Democrats) he would:

Cut spending

Let people who work keep more of their money by lowering tax rates rather than those stupid little tax credits they propose

If they want to give away money, take a portion of this humongous spending package and distribute it to those who work so they (that is, the worker) can start to stimulate the economy. This will work faster than any of that central planning BS they contemplate now

Make a good-faith effort toward the American people by cutting out all the crap that has been put into the package. A sizable chunk has nothing to do with "stimulus" efforts but looks more like a "Here's our chance to buy more votes under the guise of doing some good".

If our Economist-in-chief wants to stimulate business, cut or repeal the corporate income tax. Corporate income tax has never made good sense because if you think about it such income often gets taxed two or three times as it travels through the system. Why slap on an additional 35%?

Interestingly enough, this administration doesn't seem to know that to encourage sustainable growth they should eliminate bad policy, not add new layers.
