Is there any question that Large Businesses (Employers), Small Businesses (Employers), Investors/Shareholders (Business Owners) and Wall Street (Markets) HATE Obama's economic plan?!!!

Yes, there is that question. Many businesses have no problem with his plans. Businesses and investors are doing horrible right now, and most are hopeful that Obama's plan will work. That is especially true with Wall Street, who are just waiting for the spark which will begin the recovery. I don't think that spark is more than 6-12 months away.

No question here but Greed does come to mind.

Greed is good. Gekko said so.

Funny that the movie "Wall Street" came out right after the Black Monday of 1987. A pure coincidence, but anyway.....

Yes, it is the driving force behind free market economy. Nothing motivates people like greed. I am sure there are nicer synonyms for the word 'greed', but it is what it is.

Coincidence? Need I remind you that Oliver Stone, the Konspiracy King, made this film?

How clear does it have to be?

Yes, he made it, but he didn't make it in four weeks, which was the time between the market crach and when the movie came out.
