Strange how a man with an agenda can complain about other people for not reason other than they have an agenda.
Did “Government Investment” Make America Great? Obama Thinks So. « Hot Air
You learn a lot from Professor Obama, dont you? You may have thought the Founding Fathers, who strongly believed in low taxes, small government, and checks and balances to keep politicians from gaining too much power helped make America a great nation. You might give even more credit to the many soldiers who gave their lives for freedom, along with the great American inventors, entrepreneurs, and the masses of decent Americans who worked hard, took care of their families, and pursued the American dream.
Instead, Obama seems to believe this country is great because a bunch of know-it-all politicians confiscated peoples money and invested it for them.
Why, just think of all the wonderful investments weve had since Obama became President. What would we have ever done without the Cash for Clunkers program? What about the loan to Solyndra? We also cant forget the greatest Obama investment of them all, the stimulus bill. The Obama administration said we had to borrow a trillion dollars to create jobs, jobs, jobs and keep unemployment under 8%. What did we get out of that investment? A bunch of projects funded by the federal stimulus road signs? Wow, that was money well spent. Obama might as well have just asked liberals to write I heart Obama in toilet stalls across the country. It would have had about the same impact and we could have saved a trillion dollars.
Heres a newsflash for Barack Obama: government investments didnt make this country great. The governments role in Americas greatness was building roads, securing America against enemies foreign and domestic, street lights, a few basic regulations and getting out of everyones way. The people did all the rest and the very fact that Obama is lolling around the White House, thinking that hes responsible for Americas greatness because hes confiscating money from people whove earned it and doling it out to a bunch of bureaucrats, campaign contributors, and wasteful government programs is as galling as it as foolish.
