Economic Diseases Rampant

An economy with a split personality

Do we have Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde President

President Obama told the American people in his State of the Union message that America is Back. He says this while the poverty rate is breaking records in many major cities across the country.

What kind of man would talk like he does when so many people are suffering.
Health care costs are climbing too with many who where many who could afford to go to the doctor, now have to ration their health care.

What kind of political parties let these things continue under a masks of celebrating something that does not exist.

What kind of politicians fund large enterprises with taxpayers money while ignoring all the real possibilities of working from the bottom up fostering micro loans to all. Just funding one end of the economy, creates an unfair competitive situation.

What kind of leaders who fostered free trade, ignore the fact that free trade is the major cause behind our economic crisis.

President Obama should be challenged with his bailing out big money, the banks and the investment community without doing nothing to help those at the bottom and those who would be happy to get just a small micro loan to start up a business. The Small Business Administration is a laugh. It has existed for many years and has not accomplished much of anything.

I never thought so many would vote more at the cash register line than in the voting booth. I never thought workers would shop their way out of their jobs. I never thought taxpayers would fund research and development and then let the production phase go somewhere else in the world. I never thought we would chop up our economy and spread it around the world in a hopeless fashion.

I never thought we would give away the golden goose that laid the golden eggs. Instead of giving just the eggs away, we ended up killing the golden goose that lays them.

If free trade had to be ratified by a popular vote, it is obvious that none of the free trade agreements would have passed. Yet, the workers stood back and watch it all happen. The Occupy Wall Street goes after the money changers and the investment community but even in the midst of the protests, President Obama passed three more trade bills and even calling them job bills. He got away with it. How could the protesters let this happen.

Workers had no voice in the creation of free trade but when they finally get a chance to voice their concerns, they ignored free trade which is the major cause behind our economic crisis.

And no one asks Who said we had to compete like this with one another for the same jobs in an economic arena and why ?

It is obvious that free trade did not evolve in any natural economic fashion but was driven by power forces outside the will of the people.
