Obama is a Socialist, a corporate one. |
|
Socialism is understood by most Americans to be: When the government acts to do things. Things like welfare, Social Security and enforcement environmental regulations.
Now, to some of us those are good things, to the rest of our fellow Americans those are bad things.
But most everyone likes the roads, defense department, space program, insured banking, the Fed, and all the other government hooks that keep things in our society running smoothly. Real Socialism.
Obama supports all those things, and more.
He also has now invented a new socialism as he builds the case for corporations. Obama is making government into a system whereby the government provides Socialism to Corporations.
Obama is a 'Corporate Socialist' through and through.

Pretty sure that there have been some anti-outsourcing tax plans, which Republicans killed. Regulation which Republicans opposed and tried to kill, etc etc.
I am not trying to be flippant, but tiring of the DU need to construct conspiracy theories and psycho analysis.
The Senate Dems voted on middle class only tax cuts on Saturday. Republicans killed it.
If that had passed, that is what Obama would have signed.
But it didn't. Republicans won't vote for anything that does not contain the top 2% cuts. It is the sorry sucky reality. Which explains a lot more about the situation than psychoanalysing Obama

That is f'n idiocy, if you don't mind me saying, emulataroo.
Where some people pull that crap from, I'll never know. But pull they do.
Even after your edit, you left up the Nazi?
And then you babble something about psychoanalyzing?
But the real cream of your crap is the blame placed on republicans for the lack of effort by a few Dems.

6. I edited to clarify what I was trying to say. |
|
I agree the initial post I wrote was poor, so I am sorry about that.

throws Dems under the bus and gets GOP support on "one bill".
Obama is Charlie Brown, McConnell is Lucy.

7. That's hardly a "new thing" |
|
FDR was accused of setting up an economy that guaranteed the success of large, powerful corporations rather than small businesses. And, basically, that is what happened.
