'Obama Insults Small Business Owners'

The Only Small Businessman to Run on a Modern Day Presidential Ticket Says 'Obama Insults Small Business Owners'
By Wayne Allyn Root

My response to President Obama's claims that his administration is helping small business owners is to say Obama doesn't get it. Small business owners don't want government loans. We don't want government anywhere near us. We just want to be left alone. Obama's tax plans frighten us. His taxes will put us out of business. His loans do nothing for us, if we can't afford to stay in business in the first place. We are insulted by Obama. This is a man who knows nothing about small business - or any other kind of business. He's never started a business of any kind, never funded a business, never run a business, never created one job in his life. He thinks like a typical Illinois politician - the answer to every problem is to tax business owners to death. Now Obama thinks he can lecture us about his solutions to save small businesses? The only loan we want is to be LEFT ALONE.

Obama's federal income tax increases; cap and trade tax increases; the Social Security tax increases that will surely be proposed soon by Obama; card check legislation that is supported by Obama; combined with Obama's proposed loss of deductions to pay for government-run health care; will all combine to destroy untold number of small businesses and cost millions of jobs. Obama's small business loans are just a deceitful politician's usual way of distracting the voters' attention away from the truth.

I believe the economy won't recover until Obama gets out of the way (or is defeated). The economy continues to crater because it is obvious to business owners, business executives, entrepreneurs, and investors that Obama has no clue what he is doing. There isn't one person in his entire administration that knows anything about business. Nothing. Zip. Zilch. This man who we elected to oversee the U.S. economy is poison to the economy. That's why the stock market is down thousands of points since his election. That is why the economy continues to deteriorate. That is why his approval ratings are sinking like a rock. Obama is clueless. Business leaders now realize that he is in over his head. [more...]
