Indeed he is. Most people are totally ignorant of the new regulations obama is putting in place, through the HHS, Interior and especially the job-killing regs from the EPA.

More and more business leaders are speaking out against this anti-business, anti-capitalism administration....which is a good thing.

Quote:
I'm not sure Obama would understand anything that I'd say, because he's never really worked a day outside the political or legal area. He doesn't know how to make a payroll, he doesn't understand the problems businesses face.
All true. Obama has never worked in the private sector and neither has the vast majority of his minions...which is a problem.

Quote:
In my 50 years in business, I have never seen executives of major companies who were more intimidated by an administration.
Well, who can blame them? From the very start, obama has played class warfare, rich vs poor and demagogued virtually every sector of this economy. It has trashed and attacked the very people he needs on his side - the job creators. No wonder they are sitting on their hands, waiting for this disaster to vacate the WH.

He's not the only one of course.

"We know what his instincts are," Buckley said. "We've got a real choice between manufacturing in Canada or Mexico — which tends to be more pro-business — and America," he told the Financial Times.
His instincts are socialist in nature. He is also vindictive, petty and will go after those that speak up.

how about all the new taxes in the obamacare law that are coming online? but it isnt just taxes as many of us have said many times before, it is also all the regulations being piled on business. obamacare, the dodd/frank financial reform law, the EPA, OSHA, etc. all of these conspire to create a hostile environment on business, and they also cost business money to comply with these regulations, and lots of it.

so stop already with the "just the taxes" rubbish, and deal with the entire problem.

That would be income taxes, payroll taxes, excise taxes etc., along with unbelievable new levels of regulations, the spectre of the health care destruction bill and the fact that you have an anti-business bucket of pureed spent Bull-chow as president of the US.

Truly a national disgrace - the absolute darkest hour in American political History.

blank is non partisan from what ive seen.
2010 he donated 50-50 to dems and repubs.

he gave 2,500 to johnny isaakson(r) for governor and 5000 to the georgia republican party.
he gave 2,500 to john lewis (d) for house and 5000 to the georgia democratic party.

i would be more inclined to listen to what blank says over most of the people sanrene usually brings up.
