Obama’s goal is to lower the standard of living in the United States. He does not think it is fair that we have more than other countries. He said so during the campaign. He said we should not be driving SUVs or keeping our ac turned up, since citizens of other countries were not able to. Of course, he wants our economy to fail. That is his goal. Are people in power finally seeing what Obama’s goals are?

Intentionally destructive.

The goal is to destroy the US dollar, which will cause a horrible depression. The American people will then demand that Obammie the Commie (”our President”) sign us up with the global economy overseen by the World Bank and IMF, that we give up the US dollar for whatever world currency they create (”the safety, security, prosperity, and liberty for all Conjober).

Obammie the Commie's goal (and those who are pulling his strings and orchestrating all this) is to force the American people to march themselves into the New World Order (global Socialism).

But let's be clear. The Socialists chose that term because “Communist” was tarnished.

These are communists, of the Stalin type, not the G.B.-Shaw-smile-and-sit-down-and-have-a-pint-together type (not that Shaw was, either).

With the historical track record showing that what they are doing with the economy has never, ever worked I can only conclude that this is intentional. Stupid, yes, but intentional, nevertheless.

So much for the best n brightest...the question should be: Best at what? And brightest at what?

What you h ave stated is true....but Obama is desperately ignorant of Economics, whether it be Micro-Econ. or Macro-Econ.(and his knowledge of history is not so hot either).

I wonder if Obama is aware of what a vast country he governs. I wonder if he has ever driven much in this country - or if he has always just flown over parts of our land. When I drive across some of this country and see its majesty and beauty, I can’t imagine anyone wanting to destroy it. But we have a president who hates this country. I wonder if he even realizes what a tremendously beautiful country he hates.

At best, it's naive. At worst, it's intentionally destructive.

Remember, Ubama's benefactor, George Soros recently said he's having a very profitable recession.

If memory serves, Soros's built his wealth on the strength of manipulating markets and currency to tank.

As Rand said, there are no contradictions. These are monsters who would rather rule in hell than leve us to live in peace. They will cheerfully reduce Western civilization to rubble as long as they believe that they are the ones who'll be sitting on top of the heap.

The object is power, nothing more and nothing less. If millions have to die and millions more live in poverty, slavery and misery, so much the better - from their point of view. This may not be Obama's exact point of view, but it is the worldview of those he serves.

The only way to avoid this fate is going to be resistance and revolution - swift, violent and brutal. History is my witness.

I believe Obama’s economic initiatives are both naive and, to some extent, intentionally destructive.

Part of the justification for the entire leftist approach to government is that the rich (both individuals and nations) obtained their wealth by exploiting the less prosperous. They have to believe that, or admit that some just work harder, are more capable, are more responsible, etc., and admitting that would undermine their entire nonsensical philosophy.

You've all seen Obama's idea of humor ~ the spewings of that Wanda person?

That's about the limits of his intellect. The guy can't think any further than slogans and soundbytes. He's just Axelrod's tool.

This is what you get when you put an EEO lawschool graduate in a position of responsibility ~ it's called IDIOCRACY.

As I've said, when dialog breaks down, violence breaks out.

They may come to some massive power. But, as you said, there are millions upon million who wouldn't mind fighting back.

Their victory would be short-lived. Our standard of living would be ruined for centuries, perhaps. But we'd throw them off our backs.

Obama was born, bred and instructed in Communism from day one. He cannot be anything but an avowed dedicated Communist.What he does is done with deliberate intention to bring about Communism here and world wide. Its in his DNA!

Both.

His naivety has led him into being intentionally destructive toward Capitalism.

Well, that's very easy for them to believe, that's how they got there

Hubby getting too many requests for him to help companies pull their investments out of the US. Even if Americans want to cotinue to believe he is niave, the rest of the world, Asia in particular, is pulling their investments out of this country.

“Obama’s goal is to lower the standard of living in the United States.”

I agree, and the frightening thing about this, is, although I believe it’s his sentiment to damage the standard of living in the name of socialistic “change,” it’s George Soros who’s really calling the shots. Soros has long wanted to destroy this country and with a puppet in the White House, is well on his way to doing it.

Obama doesn’t care about America he cares about staying in power. He is not a deep thinker. He’s just someone high on himself

0 will do the things that buy him votes and tell the lies that buy him popularity

I think his only goal is to get reelected. The “stimulus” and other spending is designed to shore up his support base (unions, welfare recipients, etc.).

Nothing else matters as long as he gets reelected.
