Money quotes:

“More taxes, heavy-handed regulations, and command-and-control government will not hasten recovery. Instead, it will delay it and do so at a terrible cost to taxpayers, businesses, and working families.”

“You don’t build a house by blowing up its foundation.”

Small businesses and the entrepreneurs who lead them have been the primary drivers of job growth over the past decade. This plan would punish them with higher taxes, resulting in less government revenue, less economic growth, and fewer jobs—not more.

A ‘Taking from Peter to give to Paul’ strategy won’t work for long. It upsets Peter and doesn’t equip Paul with the tools he needs to become a productive member of society.

“we can’t forget that real growth comes from the doers, dreamers, and risk takers who run America’s millions of small businesses. If we take away their incentives to take risks, grow, and succeed—as this budget does—we will be unnecessarily shooting ourselves in the foot.”

“Command and Control”? More like Obama is doing a “cntl-alt-delete” on the American economy.

“US Chamber of Commerce just put this out. As far as I can tell, it’s the hardest they’ve come down on Obama thus far. Better late than never.”

Let me know when they oppose Obama on Amnesty......they’ll be up front cheering him on.

Looks like another DOWn day because of Obama and his big mouth and destructive policies. so far, down -83.23 points, and it looks like a rally to the bottom for the rest of the day.

“You don’t build a house by blowing up its foundation.

If you're a fabian, hegelian, alinskian, marxist communist, that's exactly what you do. That's what they've been after all this time, and why they won't say what it is they DO want, only what they don't.

Until the detestable and detested bourgeoisie are destroyed, utterly, completely pulverized, it is impossible to predict the shape of the new worker's paradise (with economic justice for all) that will emerge.

When the US Chamber of Commerce is the Paul in this scenario in regards to immigration policy and immigration employment policy, they are the most vocal proponents of robbing Peter (the US citizen and legal residents working taxpayers) to pay Paul.

“You don’t build a house by blowing up its foundation.

Unless you have learned that tactics of ghetto dwellers...who riot in the streets, burn their own houses and then DEMAND that the tax payer bail you out of your catastrophe of your own making.

Look at the WATTS riots as an example.....

The Messiah is the KING of the ghetto dwellers...they now call him and others (Quanell X for example) "community organizers"....

Chamber of Commerce was pro-illegal alien. They are reaping what they sowed.

Obama and democrats could care less. And they’ll probably get re-elected too.

Robbing Peter to pay Paul? Its more like ganging up with Chang to rob Peter and Paul’s children.
