I don't know why you bother with Lopaka. He/she clearly is not a business owner.

Okay, tell us how much Obamacare will cost business owners on all levels from small one-man operations to large 1000+ employer firms. Then tell us, as a banker, you're suppose to make loans with all the increased regulations and tight standards? After all, if you don't have cash on hand you expand with loans.

Ok lets look at reality.

Highest unemployment since the great depression.

The highest deficit spending in 3 years of any president in history.

AND, I think he is on his way to break the record of the most campaign promises broken by any president in history.

Anyone who has such an attitude doesn't deserve to be in business in the first place.

I'm sure this poor guy is being inundated with death threats and violence to his person and property by obama's jack-booted goons.

I don't think this guy is ALONE. There are probably a LOT of business not willing/able to hire til obama is gone.

Not who sits, but who is causing the uncertainty and angst in the private sector. That would be all on obama.

The Grand Ole Party owns this recession. It is the direct result of the years of jobs outsourcing/shipping factories to foreign lands and subsequent corporate profit grabbing that has been the reason why this recession is so deep. The GOP gave Corporate America its blessing in the divestment of the US for the sake of short term cash grabs.

Attempting to tell untruths, and change history doesn't make it so.

Ross Perot warned this nation that NAFTA, (signed into law by President Clinton), would start that sucking noise of jobs leaving the country.

Add to that Union insanity, making demands that has already put more than one company out of business, and raising costs to the point that to make money the companies HAD to move the jobs out of the country.

And the coup de grace, the raising of the minimum wage in 2006, a bill forced on Bush, that took the problems we were having and turned it into a landslide.

Right. Never mind the FACT the 2007 recession ENDED in June 2009, before ANY obama stimulus went out the door.

No, he OWNS this economy, he said so himself.

The Koolaid drinkers will never blame ANYTHING on their Jim Jones, Obama. Nevermind the fact that the left had unfettered vetoproof control of the Congress for two solid years at the beginning of Oblama's pResidency.

They wouldn't know good business practice if it fell out of the sky and wiggled on their faces. That's why they support Oblama.
