Obama to business leaders: Raise wages

He must want higher unemployment, to create, in his thinking, more Democrats.

[Jacquerie]

Obama has two more years, unrestrained by elections to do Iranian Valerie Jarrett's bidding.

[CivilWarBrewing]

But didn’t 0bamacare cause the surge of full-time workers to become part-time workers? So now “raise wages” to offset working fewer hours? LOL

[cld51860]

Record profits? Hmmm... Where have I heard that one before?

[tet68]

In remarks that underscored an emerging concern about the direction of understanding of President Obama about a
capitalist economy, President Obama told business leaders Wednesday...

[griswold3]

Wage inflation gotta figure in there somewhere to keep the coming deflation at bay.
I was concerned that Janet & Co would raise interest rates June 2015. Not so much now.

[KC_Lion]

Yes, Comrade Walter Ulbricht >:(

[RWB Patriot]

Business leaders to Obama (hopefully):

Shut up.

[Travis McGee]

Uh-oh. Here come the decrees. Obama is about to turn on his inner Hugo Chavez.

Of course, American Pravda will consider them all quite reasonable, and polls will agree.

[Uncle Miltie]

And part the seas while you’re at it.

[Da Coyote]

Business leaders to Dorkbama: “Raise your IQ.”

“When wages are good, and consumers feel like they’ve got money in their pockets, that ends up being good for business not bad for business,” Obama the Lesser said.

Pretty easy to say, coming from someone who has never operated a private sector business, and who prints money out of thin air whenever he thinks he needs it.

[Will88]

Obama, you nitwit, you and your predecessors lowered wages in the US by your refusal to enforce immigration law. Are you really too stupid to know that, or just playing the politics however it suits you on any given day?

[Fair Paul]

Wouldn’t it be great if a CEO of a large corporation said to Obama in his best Archie Bunker imitation, “shut up you!”

[I want the USA back]

All good communists think businesses exploit their workers. He can not understand that a business needs to make a profit or it folds.
In his mind, the only employer is the government, and if the government exploits workers, that’s all right.

[TruthInThoughtWordAndDeed]

Business leaders to Obama:

Lower taxes!

[lovesdogs]

Why in the world would they do that when 10 million new workers are ready to take the jobs of those who are unhappy with their salary.

[Inyo-Mono]

That’s about it!
