Have you had enough??? Obama is like a bad magician It is time to reach deep into somebody’s anal cavity and then pull that lying tongue from the inside out… and then kick his arse out of the PEOPLES White House!!!! It’s as if Solyndra never happened. The Obama Administration is giving $737 million to a Tonopah Solar, a subsidiary of California -based SolarReserve. PCG is an investment partner with SolarReserve. Nancy Pelosi’s brother-in-law happens to be the number two man at PCG. Team Obama is spending $737 million to create 45 permanent jobs. The Hill reported, via Free Republic: The Energy Department announced Wednesday that is has finalized a $737 million loan guarantee for a Nevada solar project. The decision comes several weeks after a California-based solar manufacturer that received a $535 million loan guarantee from the Obama administration in 2009 filed for bankruptcy and laid off 1,100 workers, setting off a firestorm in Washington. Christie confirmed that he is too smart to want the job  Obama "I wasn't born in a manger" is watching his best horses leave the stable as his poll ratings keep plummeting faster then a stalled 777. Now, up the shit-creek, he blames Congress while usurping all powers there, presiding over the 11 "apostles" of the apocalypse. Desperate to get a handle on a brewing revolution, he and his buddy Soros are jumping the gun by organizing mock protests dubbed "March on Wall Street" in an effort to castrate the real revolution soon to be dubbed "March on the Federal Reserve". Gibson Guitar Corp's chief slammed the U.S. government on Wed for sending armed agents to raid two Tennessee factories under a law aimed at curbing the illegal harvest of tropical hardwoods, reports Reuters. Armed people came in our factory evacuated our employees, then seized half a million dollars of our goods without any charges having been filed, Gibson CEO Henry Juszkiewicz told reporters and others at a Washington lunch. I think its a clear overreach, he said. Government agents seized a total of over $1 million worth of rosewood, ebony and finished guitars from Gibson factories in Memphis and Nashville in raids in 2009 and August of this year, Juszkiewicz told Reuters. Gibsons factories remain open under great difficulty because the raids took most of the companys raw materials, the CEO said. In a Capitol Hill forum Wednesday, Juszkiewicz told Republican lawmakers the raids have so far cost the company more than $3 million in legal fees and manufacturing disruptions. The price of their products will likely go up because of the financial hit they have taken. Furthermore, the CEO cautioned that American jobs could be sent overseas as a result of the federal harassment. "You know, theres a very real possibility we will have to move at least some processing [jobs] overseas," the Daily Caller reports Juszkiewicz saying. "Im trying to avoid that. But you know, I have to do what the business requires, and thats a very realistic possibility." Move the manufacturing out of the USA and Obama's SS officers can't invade your plant.  Local governments, once a steady source of employment in tough economic times, are shedding jobs in unprecedented numbers, and heavy payroll losses are expected to persist into next year. The job cuts by city and county governments are helping offset modest private-sector employment gains, restraining broader job growth. "They'll continue to be a drag on the overall (employment) numbers and the economy," says Wells Fargo economist Mark Vitner. Localities have chopped 535,000 positions since September 2008 to close massive budget deficits resulting largely from sharp declines in property tax receipts. That exceeds the 413,000 local government jobs cut from 1980 to 1983, the only other substantial reduction in local government employment, according to federal records that go back to 1955. Christopher Hoene, research director for the National League of Cities, estimates an additional 265,000 or so jobs could be eliminated by the end of 2012. The cuts so far have mostly come since the recession ended in mid-2009, although they do not yet top those made in manufacturing and construction during and after the recession. Local government budget woes are continuing even as state layoffs have eased amid a modest rebound in consumer spending that has lifted state sales tax revenue. Since January 2010, states have trimmed 51,000 positions, less than 1% of their workforce of 5.1 million, while localities have slashed 406,000 jobs, or nearly 3% of payrolls then totaling 14.5 million. Cities and counties largely depend on property tax revenue, which has plummeted as home values have continued to decline. Also, the effects of lower property values on taxes are typically delayed, because many jurisdictions do assessments every other year or average appraisals over several years to figure taxes, says Hoene and Kim Rueben, senior fellow at the Urban Institute. At the same time, states are reducing aid to local governments in an effort to balance their own budgets. The 2009 federal economic stimulus made up some of the gap, but that money ran out this year. Among localities cutting jobs: Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, who unveiled his first budget last week, proposed 517 layoffs and the elimination of 2,000 vacant positions to close a $636 million deficit. In New York, Nassau County Executive Edward Mangano is proposing to lay off 700 workers in 2012 after leaving 300 jobs unfilled this year to wipe out a $310 million budget gap. Besides lower sales tax revenue, the county faces rising pension and health care costs mandated by union contracts. "The county executive is committed to not raising property taxes," says spokeswoman Katie Grilli-Robles. The city of Venice, Fla., is laying off its fire marshal, deputy fire chief and fire inspector as part of a plan to cut 23 jobs next year, or about 9% of its workforce. The fire chief will conduct inspections, says spokeswoman Pam Johnson. The city of San Jose, which pared 588 jobs in the current fiscal year, will have to ax up to 800 positions next year and shut down all libraries and community center programs unless it caps soaring pension costs, says spokeswoman Michelle McGurk. This is just the tip of the iceberg. ** 3 years from now this country will be begging business & industry to come back at any cost. ** 3 years from now every American will be willing to do any job at any pay level. Prepare for economic survival, the fallout isn't going to be pretty. You think people are complaining NOW...? Outspoken Wynn Resorts Chairman and CEO Steve Wynn says he shares some of the same frustrations as the Occupy Wall Street movement and that he is reluctant to invest in the U.S. until he has more confidence in the government's economic policies. "That group is quite diverse," Wynn said of the crowd at Zuccotti Park. "There are people in there that think that government should give them more just because they are alive. There are people who are opposing government spending. There are people there that are opposing bailouts." Wynn says they all reflect "anxiety, insecurity, fear," about the way the government is handling taxpayers' money. Wynn made his remarks to analysts during the company's earnings call Wednesday afternoon. He told analysts that, unlike many protesters, he doesn't blame Wall Street and the banks for what's wrong. He blames deficit spending. "I am watching my employees' standard of living drop because of deficits." Wynn says even though he's given his U.S. workers two cost of living increases, "people working for me are being paid in 80-cent dollars, on their way to 70-cent dollars...the net result of all this is frustration, anxiety and anger." Wynn called it "worse than hypocrisy" for the Obama administration to attack the rich. "Rich people are now being defined by the administration as people who make a million dollars." He says many business owners who net two or three million dollars pay personal taxes on that. What's more, "That does not show that 25 to 30 percent of their profits are probably tied up in accounts receivable or inventory, stuff that they can't spend or get their hands on." As for what remains, minus cost of living, "They take whatever is left, these so-called 'millionaires', and they open up another shop or another office, and that is the only known engine of growth in the United States of America." Wynn says many young people in the Occupy movement don't understand this, and he's isn't angry with them for vilifying the wealthy. "But if it's a politician that does it, or a union leader, then it represents something much more pernicious. It represents a deliberate misleading of the public." Wynn says he's reluctant to expand in Las Vegas, even as his company continues to do so in China. He told analysts he's been approached by El Ad Properties about the 34-acre Frontier property across from the Wynn and Encore resorts on the Las Vegas Strip. El Ad bought the now empty lot from billionaire Phil Ruffin for a staggering $1.2 billion in 2007, but it has been unable to develop it. It stands as a vacant eyesore. Wynn says El Ad has made him "a very attractive offer" to take over the property, a project that Wynn says could create 10,000 direct jobs and 30,000 indirect jobs. But he won't do it. "I cannot predict what healthcare costs are going to be, what regulatory load they're going to heap on us, what new taxes or other burdens this insatiable governmental appetite for money from the citizens will take us to." What does Steve Wynn predict? "It is going to get worse." Things will only change, in his opinion, when Americans force the government to control spending. "You cannot sustain these deficits. You cannot undercut the people that create the jobs... the Democratic agenda of spend and bribe the public is bankrupting this country, and until it stops, the citizens of this country are in for more hard times." Bottom line: Obama panders to the stupid population who believe his lies. The only thing that can save Obama is the intellectual genius of Joe Biden. Oh shit! WASHINGTON By year's end, nearly 12,000 police officers will have lost their jobs, and 30,000 positions in county and municipal departments will go unfilled, both direct consequences of a faltering economy that has forced deep cuts in local government budgets. All police officer jobs are paid for by the tax dollars generated by private business. People work for private businesses, they get paid, they pay taxes, the taxes pay for the police. Without enough businesses and corporations, there isn't enough tax money to pay police salaries. Moral to the story: people had better welcome business & corporations BACK into our society. (Contrary to what Obama preaches, everyone cannot work for the gov't.) Obama: "We've Been a Little Bit Lazy..." For the third time in as many months, Obama chided the United States for lack of effort in the competition for business. At the annual Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation meetings in Honolulu Saturday, the president said the U.S. has been lazy about attracting new investments to its shores: But we've been a little bit lazy, I think, over the last couple of decades. We've kind of taken for granted well, people will want to come here and we aren't out there hungry, selling America and trying to attract new business into America. In October, the president told donors in San Francisco that Americans have lost our ambition, our imagination, and our willingness to do the things that built the Golden Gate Bridge and Hoover Dam and unleashed all the potential in this country. Obama noted in September that the U.S. had gotten a little soft when it comes to competing in international markets. I do best under pressure. But Obama cracks under pressure and folds up. Our nation is as soft as its leader. And that limp-dick is as soft as it gets. I think Obama is showing his true lack of balls in blaming our nation for being soft when all he does is give away money and take vacations. The way to get this nation back to work is by encouraging business & industry, NOT penalizing business & industry with environmental regulations, health insurance costs, and unionism. Poor people ("Occupy" idiots) and unions NEVER provided a job for ANYONE. Now they don't even want to work, they beg. It's pathetic. Business, industry, and private innovation made this nation. Folks like Obama will do their best to tear it down. Obama corrected his statement... he says he was only referring to UNIONIZED workers as becoming lazy. Makes sense now. First intelligent thing the dope has ever saidRobert and Patricia Haynes take care of their two , who at the ages of 30 and 34 are more like in adult bodies. That's because they both have cerebral palsy, and rely on their parents to feed and change them and likely will for the rest of their lives. The Haynes family receives monthly checks from the state of Michigan through Medicaid, allowing the parents to care for their and themselves instead of institutionalizing them. But because a Michigan law classifies Robert and Patricia as "home health care workers," they are considered public workers and therefore automatic union members meaning the SEIU gets a $30 cut of the family's Medicaid subsidy as union dues. Unions will stoop to any low available to collect their dues. Merry Christmas to the , huh? Obama awards $433 million no-bid contract to a top donor for his campaign. We can always count on Obama to do.... what will benefit HIM the most, lol. Unless you are a public union employee or a big donor to Obama, you're nothing in his mind. Detroit could run out of cash in December, plan must include layoffs. Published: Wednesday, November 16, 2011, 1:15 PM With Detroit Mayor Dave Bing preparing to explain the city's fiscal crisis tonight in a rare televised address, Council President Pro Tem Gary Brown says the situation is even worse than anyone has let on. Bing is expected to discuss a confidential Ernst & Young report obtained by the Detroit Free Press that suggests Detroit could run out of cash by April without steep cuts to staff and public services. That's a grim prognosis, but according to Brown, the city actually could be unable to make payroll "as early as December." "I know the report says April, but there are certain risk assumptions that when you take those into consideration, worst case scenario you could run out (of cash) in December," Brown said this morning on WJR-AM 760. In his speech tonight, Bing is expected to propose privatizing the city's public bus system and lighting departments, both of which have have been failing residents but reportedly cost them $100 million a year in subsidies. Brown supports that long-term plan, but he is hoping the mayor will couple it with a short-term strategy to lay off up to 2,300 city workers if unions fail to agree to long-discussed concessions. If Bing doesn't, City Council will. All the money the nation has forked out for the car companies and unions to help save Detroit was in vain? Another Obama failure? We have got to get some REAL leadership because this entire country is sliding off this cliff...Detroit is leading the pack. How is this Hope and Change working out for you, Detroit?  |
