Geez.. Obamas.. why you hiding $$ in companies that create JOBS overseas!

[healthmyths]

n his most recent financial disclosure from 2011, Obama and his wife reported having between $200,000 and $450,000 in the Vanguard 500 Index Fund, which invests in the largest U.S. corporations. According to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as of Sept. 30, 2011, the fund’s biggest holding was 8,272,039 shares of Apple Inc., then valued at $3.2 billion.
Not long ago, Apple boasted that its products were made in America.
Today, few are. Almost all of the 70 million iPhones, 30 million iPads and 59 million other products Apple sold last year were manufactured overseas….
“Apple’s an example of why it’s so hard to create middle-class jobs in the U.S. now,” said Jared Bernstein, who until last year was an economic adviser to the White House.

“If it’s the pinnacle of capitalism, we should be worried.”

If I am not mistaken a President puts his finances in a blind trust and has no control over what is and is not invested in. So this goes no where.

C'mon. You really think he doesn't have control over it?

...

Sounds like the exact argument people were using for Romney. Weird how that works.

meet Obama's Jobs Czar.. Jeffrey Immelt CEO of General Electric

Why Did Obama Choose Outsourcing Champion Jeffrey Immelt as Jobs Advisor?
Tuesday, February 08, 2011

President Barack Obama’s choice of Jeffrey Immelt, chairman and CEO of General Electric, to chair the newly-created President’s Council on Jobs and Competitiveness has drawn criticism for many reasons.

GE is a model for what’s wrong with corporate America these days, writes Shahien Nasiripour at The Huffington Post. It’s a company “that’s hoarding cash, sending jobs overseas, relying on taxpayer bailouts and paying less taxes than envisioned.”

On the issue of shipping jobs overseas, GE’s actions are particularly glaring. The company regularly tops the list of transnational corporations ranked by the size of their foreign asset holdings, as it receives more of its revenues and profits from abroad than from its U.S. operations. Also, the majority of its 304,000 employees are based overseas.

Not only is Obama a FAILURE.. He's a hypocritical FAILURE .

This is what Romney had to say about his finances.

Asked why he had not liquidated his offshore investments before running for office, Romney said there was nothing shady about the arrangement.
"Well, first of all, all of my investments are managed in a blind trust. By virtue of that, the decisions made by the trustee are the decisions that determine where the investments are," he told the National Review.

"Secondly, the so-called offshore account in the Cayman Islands, for instance, is an account established by a US firm to allow foreign investors to invest in US enterprises and not be subject to taxes outside their own jurisdiction.
"So in many instances, the investments in something of that nature are brought back into the United States. The world of finance is not as simple as some would have you believe," he argued.

"Sometimes a foreign entity is formed to allow foreign investors to invest in the United States, which may well be the case with the entities that Democrats are describing as foreign accounts."

Romney fears tax returns would be distorted
