Why Obama's Boyish Utopia Endangers Us

President Barack Obama is still just a lost boy at his age, and he searches for a world he wished existed. His insistence upon living in his world, though attractive to the uneducated, neglected, and naive, is dangerously heaping hot coals of consequence on the heads of those who know better...

...President Obama believes his good press far too often, trusts his advisors' agreement as a sign of genuine critical analysis, and believes the American people are too unenlightened to truly understand his methods. All three realities push the President further into an altered state of worldview that are having disastrous impact on the life of average Americans.

There is an old canard that says one should never automatically assume malice or criminality when something can as easily be explained by ignorance or stupidity.

In Obama's case, it is increasingly apparent to all but his most jaded partisan supporters that the door is rapidly closing on the easier excuses of "ignorance or stupidity".

No-body's policies and goals can be 100% consistently against America's best interests and the assumption remain it can be anything other than deliberate. At some point, even the hopeful well wishers must forsake the blinders and face the reality of what sort of man America has elected to the highest office in the land.

We are so screwed.

The tipping point for me was GM’s bondholders. A real economy destroyer - institutions turning on the Rule of Law and stable contracts, to pay of union cronies.

What will be appropriate (nationalized), next? That act, alone, just drives regular Americans nuts - where to store OUR money, where it won’t be TAKEN AWAY?? This type of act will escalate, I fear, if unemployment goes higher. A “national emergency” will be declared, and ALL of our wealth, savings, IRAs etc will be “needed” to correct the economy.

When - it was the initial “intervention” that has caused a lock up in market spending & lending flows!

Nice goin’, Chi(cago)-coms - you destroyed a competitive (efficient, improving, expanding) economy.
