Attacking Small Businesses

By Semperpapa

President Obama addressed some supporters in Virginia and went on the attack against small businesses, obviously forgetting that our economy is vastly based on the prosperity of small businesses.
Or maybe he did not forget but instead was transparent, finally, about his personal believe that small businesses are to be destroyed in order to create the dependency on the government he seeks.

During his unhinged address, Obama stated:

"There are a lot of wealthy, successful Americans who agree with me -- because they want to give something back.  They know they didn’t -- look, if you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own.  You didn’t get there on your own.  I’m always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart.  There are a lot of smart people out there.  It must be because I worked harder than everybody else.  Let me tell you something -- there are a whole bunch of hardworking people out there".

Really, Mr. President, with all due respect, you are truly full of it. Just because you never had a real job, just because you always attached yourself to the government tit and abused the system as a way of life, it does not mean that you have a slight clue of what you are saying.
In the first place, what do you really know about running a business? With your super cushy schedule of golfing and rubbing elbows with brainless celebrities and stealing their money, vacations and fast-food escapades, you are once again highly unqualified to make any sort of judgement on what business owners experience when trying to make a successful enterprise.

And who are these wealthy, successful Americans you speak of?
Buffett? Inmelt? Ted Turner?
Please, spare me the crap. These are individuals who not only have used and abused the capitalistic system while trashing it at the same time, but also have been found that their idea of "giving back" did not involve paying the taxes they were due, let alone wishing to pay more to the government.

He then added:

 "If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help.  There was a great teacher somewhere in your life.  Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive.  Somebody invested in roads and bridges.  If you’ve got a business -- you didn’t build that.  Somebody else made that happen.  The Internet didn’t get invented on its own.  Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet".

Again, I am shocked (no, not really) about your lack of any cognitive understanding of how an industrialized society, a successful industrialized society really works.

If you want to play that game, then you surely understand that the roads and bridges you speak of were built with equipment that small businesses, not government, invented, designed and manufactured.

And regarding the emergency services you and your freakish stooge Elisabeth Warren allude to, are also able to do their priceless job well thanks to the private enterprise.

Cops can respond to emergency calls and protect the citizens thanks to equipment designed and manufactured by small businesses, including those big bad guns that the Secret Service protects your sorry ass with.

Firefighters can rush to an emergency on trucks and again with equipment that was designed and manufactured by small businesses.

Effectively, the government produces nothing. When roads and bridges are built, they take taxpayers' money and give it to small businesses to do the actual construction.

But yes, I do not expect anything less divisive from a president that has no class, besides having absolutely no clue about what you are doing, except that I see a sinister agenda from the man. Hopefully I am wrong.

Just my thoughts!
