He has demonized those who actually invest and provide capital for small business.
He has demonized two industries that I work in. Healthcare and Finance.
He has demonized anyone who wants to tackle economic issues, entitlement stability, or joblessness as social darwinists.
He has taken over a car company for the benefit of his Union pals and then closed down a production plant in my area which has destroyed the local economy.
He has increased the unemployment rate of my country but, fortunately, he has figured out a way to adjust the numbers without really employing anyone.
All in all it is exactly what I expected from Obama before he got elected. On a positive note, I did win a large sum of money from people who thought he wouldn't get elected.
So when the car companies credit that action with the fact they are still here, does that not get taken into account when you claim he destroyed your local economy? Was your production plant going to continue to exist while those companies didn't?
As for demonizing those who provide for small businesses, I have to say as a small business owner, I fail to see it. Obama's time has a been a boon for my business. The worst time for our business was when Obama was transitioning into office (the height of the credit crunch) when we couldn't get any money at all. This seems to be a fairly consistent view of the small business owners I know or who have appeared on television, but if you've got some evidence that money is less available now than it was 3 years ago, I'd love to see it.
