According to successful businessman, Steve Wynn, who also believes that view is shared by his peers and partners.

Wynn CEO Goes On Epic Anti-Obama Rant On Company Conference Call

Quote:
And I'm saying it bluntly, that this administration is the greatest wet blanket to business, and progress and job creation in my lifetime.

Well, my customers and the companies that provide the vitality for the hospitality and restaurant industry, in the United States of America, they are frightened of this administration.
Afraid of the regulation, the new legislation, the new taxes, the unending class/envy warfare with the intent on redistribution of wealth.

Not just business, but individuals as well are frightened of this president and his policies.

We haven't heard that kind of talk except from pure socialists. Everybody's afraid of the government and there's no need soft peddling it, it's the truth.

Finally, someone in business has the guts to finally say it for the record!

I, too, argue on behalf of ideas that I know to be untrue, because it is my job to do so.

A CEO is no different. He is going to say whatever will put more money in his pocket.

How does anything the man said about 0bama, end up putting money in his pocket? It doesn't, he spoke his mind here as a frustrated businessman, who has a president that is anti-business and a moron when it comes to understanding economics and the market.

0bama thinks job creation is as simple as him telling employers to start hiring and expanding their businesses.

Yes, it's not just business that is frozen. I'm sure there are many people like me, sitting on cash and not sure what to do with it. Because the future of our nanny state government is uncertain, I don't know if I should pay off my mortgage, invest in securities or just sit on the cash..... so I'm just sitting on the cash.

One thing I'm convinced of is that taxes will go up, so I'm moving any income possible to this year.

his comment:
And I can prove it and I could spend the next 3 hours giving you examples of all of us in this market place that are frightened to death about all the new regulations, our healthcare costs escalate, regulations coming from left and right.


the less money he spends on regulations, the more profit his firm makes, and the higher his salary goes.

Therefore he is obviously going to argue on behalf of fewer regulations, whether this has any impact on his decisions to expand, or not.

How can you plan ahead. Take the corporate jet industry for example. 0bama signs a law which keeps the bush tax cuts in place and gives tax breaks for corporate jet buyers.... sounds great, guess we can build more jets. Not so fast, 0bama turns around and goes on multiple rants in public, demonizing the tax deduction he just signed, and calls for raising taxes during "the worst economy since the Great Depression.". WTF???

Wynn was being kind when he said 0bama is a wet blanket, he is a freaking wrecking ball.

Gee I needed Wynn to tell me this...I have been saying it for a year and a half.

Companies are refusing to hire people until the election is over. This is their way of electing the next POTUS. In the meantime, Americans suffer. And what power do Americans have?

Oh don't buy their products? These companies are so large that everything you buy, unless its grown from your neighbor's garden, is owned by them. Teddy Roosevelt and Taft, feared this would happen with the big trusts.
