Obama has his Gun Sights on Entrepreneurs!!!

In economic theory you have what are known as factors of production or productive inputs which consist of labor, land, and capital. These are the very factors that enable the production of goods and services in any economy. There is a fourth factor of production to consider and that is entrepreneurship.

The way these factors are controlled though is a matter of government.

In a market economy, considered as a separate factor, entrepreneurs combine the other factors of production, land, labor, and capital in an innovative way to make a profit. In a planned economy, central planners decide how land, labor, and capital should be used to provide for maximum benefit for all citizens.

Entrepreneurs provide innovative solutions and create value in the marketplace, and as a result new jobs are created. This factor of production seems to be the most important and you would think politicians would seek to enable this area of production in order to stimulate the economy and create more jobs. Entrepreneurs are risk takers and invest a lot of money into their ventures and should naturally be rewarded, not punished.

If you are Barack Obama though, the idea of improving economic conditions at home involves punishing the most productive people in our economy who create wealth and value in the market place.

Just listen to his speeches and you will begin to pick up on the implicit hints that he gives for his economic program that will further enable the "welfare state" and punish the innovators and wealth creators that drive America.

Recently Barack Obama gave a speech in Raleigh, North Carolina attacking John McCain's economic policies and at the same time revealing his own but not being very specific. He did say his programs would be paid for by a combination of tax increases, elimination of waste and spending cuts elsewhere in the federal budget, which he did not detail.

In response to his speech, McCain, who was at fundraising events in Washington and Virginia on Monday, issued a statement belittling the Obama speech.

"While hardworking families are hurting and employers are vulnerable, Barack Obama has promised higher income taxes, Social Security taxes, capital-gains taxes, dividend taxes and tax hikes on job creating businesses," a McCain spokesman, Tucker Bounds, said in a statement issued before Obama spoke. "Barack Obama doesn't understand the American economy, and that's change we just can't afford."

Entrepreneurship has always been important to America, from the small flower shop owner to the big time automobile manufacturer, these are all the results of risk taking individuals who are innovative and have vision. Not to mention entrepreneurship creates jobs.

Here is an idea Obama, why don't we enable entrepreneurs more instead of punishing them with more taxes. America needs change but not change that is going to take us in a backwards direction and make us less competitive in the marketplace not to mention enhance the welfare state.

Beware: False Messianic Promises

An article from the American Thinker titled "Obama's Politics of Collective Redemption" poses some interesting parallels.

Barack Obama has been painted as a messiah to some and many have been caught up in the euphoric message of change much like the germans of the Hitler era, where in the beginning Hitler promised change and instilled a strong sense of nationalism in Germany that laid the groundwork for Nazi doctrines that would eventually threaten and ruin the world.

Be afraid, be very afraid.

Hitler himself had a slogan when he was rising to power: "Alles muss anders sein!" ("Everything must be different!")

Change can be perilous, especially if it is combined with radical religious and political fervor.

Consider the comments of Pope Benedict:

"...where the Marxist ideology of liberation had been consistently applied, a total lack of freedom had developed, whose horrors were now laid bare before the eyes of the entire world. Wherever politics tries to be redemptive, it is promising too much. Where it wishes to do the work of God, it becomes not divine, but demonic."

History has shown us that messages of radical change have paved the way for disasters that have not only threatened the country where they were preached, but also to the entire world.

Promises of change that involve making people more dependent on the government and weakening the working class and making America less competitive in this global economy, is this the kind of change that America needs?

Do we need change that involves catering to our enemies? Don't be confused by the message that we need to improve the American image in the international spotlight. Does America need to be diplomatic, yes of course. But America does not need to cater to an international community that does not have America's interests in mind.

Obama has created euphoria in America and is exploiting the hopes and dreams of hard working Americans with a false sense of meaningful and liberating change. Are we going to all of a sudden live in this utopian society where everyone has each other's interests in mind. It is an ideal situation, one not very well aligned with a capitalist society. Don't forget, capitalism is not the evil that Marxists and other anti-capitalists would have you believe. Capitalism should always go hand in hand with altruism. I am digressing here, but look at historical capitalists like Andrew Carnegie and the Rockefellers.

Obama's idea of political and economic change will ultimately weaken people and create further dependence on social programs, not to mention his idea of change will hit America in the pocket book and further cause the economy to go into a tailspin.

What do I say to Obama and his causes, Yes We Can't!

Obama: A Clear and Present Danger

In an address to a crowd in Oregon, Obama minimized the threat that countries like Iran pose to the United States, further demonstrating not only to the United States itself, but also to the world that this error in judgement is a clear and present danger and also an example of inexperience talking.



The facts are laid on the table and the Iranian president has made some very bold statements not only to the United States but also to countries friendly to the US such as Israel. Does "wiped off the map" ring a bell? Iran has also been pressured to stop supporting the insurgency that is present in Iraq fighting against and killing American troops. Iran supports terrorism, plain and simple, but more than that, they support any cause that undermines American foreign policy.

If Obama is to take a soft stance with Iran, what does that mean to the world, to the United States? What kind of message does that send to our enemies? Are we supposed to court them and give out cupcakes? Diplomacy only goes so far with fanatics like the ones we are seeing in Iraq and Iran. We need a leader that will not entertain thoughts of courting our enemies. Courting allows them to buy time to get stronger and a lot more dangerous. We also need to be midful of our enemies' allies, Iran is also friendly with Venezuela and Mr. Hugo Chavez, they have reps that sit on the same OPEC panel.

Here is an interesting question, if Iran is just taking an internal perspective and building a nuclear program for civil purposes, then why do they feel so threatened and demonstrate resistance and a defense stance when confronted?

Answer: Iran feels threatened overall by the US and it's foreign policies in that part of the world. Iran wants to establish supremacy in that region and it doesn't want it's ultimate goal of building a nuclear arsenal to be disrupted. It also does not want America to spread and establish a dominant influence in that part of the world. The US military has always had a huge military presence in that part of the world, especially after the first Gulf War.

With comments like what Obama uttered to that crowd in Oregon, it is apparent that we not only have a clear and present danger abroad but also right here in our own backyard.

Cutting Ties For Political Gain

My comments below are derived from the article "Obama: Stealth Socialist?"

By now we have all heard the commentary through various media outlets of the radical Rev. Jeremiah Wright, the former spiritual mentor of presidential candidate Barack Obama. Even though Barack Obama has denounced his former spiritual leader publicly, you still have to be skeptical about this move. If Barack Obama was not running for president, do you think he would have cut ties with Jeremiah Wright or distanced himself from his church which he has been attending for the last 20 years? It should be noted that Obama has been a loyal, pledged member of the Trinity United Church of Christ since 1991 but has worshiped there for 20 years.

It is reasonable to conclude that during the past twenty years, a message aligned with Jeremiah Wright's open comments about hating America and the economic slavery of black people caused by "white" capitalism was preached with Obama in attendance. Why has Obama been hailed as the "black Jesus". This a radical idea and a stretch.

Do you honestly think that Obama has forsaken his ties internally with these associates of the Trinity United Church of Christ? No

His denouncement of Wright's comments is nothing more than a political tactic to show face in the arena of public opinion. These radical views expressed by Wright are not commonly shared with a majority of people and would obviously be detrimental to Obama's campaign. It is a matter of political survival at the moment. Oh by the way, as the campaign goes on and people demand clarification of the message of change, you will begin to see some interesting shifts as Obama will naturally have to appease to big constituent groups like labor unions and others.

Change is good, just as long as it is not at the peril of the United States.
