Woes traced to Obama policies

Most of our nation’s dangerous and sad problems are a direct result of incompetent, greedy, left-wing social policies that force more and more people into poverty.

The Obama administration policy positions are basically staffed with coming and going college professors and union bosses who disdain capitalism and business and think micromanaging people’s lives with regulations and taxes makes social sense.

Preventing America from developing and using our abundance of oil and natural gas is Obama policy because of his hatred of oil companies. Burning food (corn) to make ethanol trashes the planet with huge water consumption (per gallon of ethanol) and also results in higher food prices. Burning food is immoral on its own.

Printing money to lower the value of the dollar so the government’s debt can be paid back with cheaper dollars is unethical and also contributes to higher food and commodity prices. We have been given a nationalized health plan that is so big, complex and expensive that the plan itself makes people sick. The Federal Emergency Management Agency could technically and correctly declare the entire Obama presidency a national disaster.
