I’m betting on measures that “target” certain segments of the economy, and that’s precisely why it will fail, and I believe people are beginning to instinctively sense this. This speech may be both an economic and political failure.
I know I’m preaching to the choir here, but our economy needs systemic reforms, perhaps merely removing the obstacles the Democrats have placed in the road. Dodd-Frank, Obamacare, Sarbanes-Oxley, Keystone, high corporate taxes, if addressed, the economy might go somewhere.
