Too harsh? You have probably all read the book, so why don't we start putting it into action?

My plans exactly, I just posted the reference in another thread. I am not going to be a slave for Obama.

I’ve already been making plans in this regard during the past few weeks. Including as someone else stated charitable contributions (particularily to my child’s school, where several teachers & the principal are zero supporters— not openly, but you know it).

When even working class single moms who have never voted and are certainly not Republicans are scared they will lose their jobs because of Barack, we actually have hope that people will have a clue.

Personally, I was planning to retire in 2-3 years.

I think I will do it next year instead.

We’re cutting our income in half and not spending any money.
I am not going back to work.

I hope others will join me in killing the goose that laid the golden egg.

Harsh? hardly. You have no idea the things I am wishing on 50 plus percent of this country right now...

Don’t hold your breath. Businessmen are realists, not revolutionaries. Buffet and Gates both came out for Obama and they’re just the spokesmen. Ayn Rand had an idealistic vision of what capitalists were but in the end they won’t upset the apple cart. Sorry to burst your illusion.

Not harsh at all. I am tempted to say that not all the votes have been counted, and this is premature.

But if this is the new ObamaNation - here is my new set of "talking points":

Fire up, underlings. Obama wins, you are so happy. Well, chew on this. I just eliminated your health insurance at open enrollment. Your flex time is gone. Oh, and those bonuses based on production? Sorry, they are a thing of the past.

I hope you never approach me with one of your kids stupidass cookie dough sales or wrapping paper fundraisers again because the answer is a FLAT OUT NO.

And you won't be getting a raise. Instead, I've been interviewing people with your level of experience but half the damn entitlement mentality that you exhibit. Oh, and they also cost me less because they are willing to work for less.

Ejnoy the new reality, suckers! Signed, Your Boss.

GREAT post...

I would also like to know, does anyone here have a comprehensive list of which corporations supported Obama?...I’m already cancelling my subscriptions to the NY Post and St Petersburg Times down here in FL... Done with watching Fox news as well (except for Hannity)....

Now I’m just trying to make wiser decisions in terms of day-to-day purchases...I dont want one single cent of my money going to an Obama-enabling corporation if I can possibly avoid it!

Nope, not harsh at all. I've already spoken to my employees about the new health care charges he plans for us, and for the tax increases for my family. As soon as he starts to implement them, all of my employees will become independent contractors. I will have no one on my payroll that is not an immediate family member.

I have a great accountant, he tipped me last March and we sold everything, even the kid's college funds out of the market. I can't forsee needing any large purchase in the next 4 years, so I'm going to just sit tight. Hide & watch.

Already in the works. It's time to stop and smell the flowers. Quitting a high paying software developing contract. Gonna sit back and watch the show, they spend their days depending on others and have pinned their hopes on the fact that we will continue to do it..well..F*CK THEM.

I will no longer be held hostage by my own desire to produce and succeed.

This thread and its comments are must reading, at least up to the point of this ping. There’s a lot to think about.

Have not read the book yet but have it. I think I will start reading it tomorrow. I agree it is time to explain to people in these terms so they can see what the cause is. It will be interesting to see how this plays out in the next several years and watching on the Obama supporters wonder what happened.

Yup...I’ve seen some good ideas already like giving your tip to the homeless bast@rd on the sidewalk and explaining to the waiter, that you’re on board with his thinking too! (For waiters that voted hypocrat of course) Just start the conversation off casually...how about that, the first mulatto president? for openers...and one should be able to tell.

Rush will explain we don’t have to participate in this, I know I won’t be. It has nothing to do with his race, but everything to do with the socialism godlress liberalism destroying this country from within whule these zombies are cheering.

On the other hand, is this the end of affirmative action? It really should be!

I’m not sold this guy will survive for 4 years frankly. And Biden’s just about as scary.
