Oh, The Changes We'll See: The Age of Obama, low pay, and tiny cars

Weekly Standard ^ | April 24, 2009 | Irwin M. Stelzer

The rest of the article explains that Obama's "changes" mean

1. The end of "spacious, safe cars", "with the exception of the limousines favored by congressional leaders and White House appointees."

2. Fewer people living in suburbs, as commuting becomes more expensive and less comfortable, and fewer people owning their own homes.

3. Canadian style health care, with rationing and waiting lists.

4. A glut of college graduates.

5. Less innovation, as higher taxes on the "rich" discourage taking risks.

The nomination of John S McCain is what made this possible. The GOP was doomed that point on.

And eventually the USSA will drop to the
approximate economic productivity of Finland

[popdonnelly]

In addition to low pay, he left out high taxes.

[Tarheel]

That is a depressing article. Not my idea of the American Dream.

[Rennes Templar]

Don’t forget gas lines and turning down the thermostat to 68.

6. Shovel ready projects without enough shovels or people who know how to operate them.

I know, not mine either. Let's stop this guy and his party.

If Obama gets his way it is the end of the American dream. You will always stay into the class in which you were born. Of course since the democrats are in charge now they become the politariat and all is well they are good you know *scarasm*

You people just don't get it. This is the ultimate in security planning. This could be called the Rhodesian strategy.

By the time his programs are full steam (2 yrs), this nation will be in such chaos, and ruin, that no self respecting enemy nation would even bother to think twice about attacking us, as no one could tell if they had, or not. It would be pointless!

Yes we can, Thank You Satan 1:50

One of the gripe against the Bush economy was the “decline in real wages” accounting for the “wrong direction” poll numbers.
Let’s check those real wages numbers after a dose of Obamanimics.

Since the so called BUSH economy was built on the back of the biggest real estate fraud bubble the world has ever seen. What was the real Bush economy!!!

In a few years we may look at the biggest bailout, stimulus, fraud bubble the world has ever seen and that will be the obamma economy.

[Jeff Chandler]

Not to mention the Clinton economy, built on the back of the biggest dot com fraud bubble the world has ever seen.

The Big O should be required to use a Zil as the new Presidents car. That will fix him.

[cameraeye]

New Hampshire did this to America by selecting him in the first place. We where doomed from the start.

The Big O should be required to use a Zil as the new Presidents car.

I have a suggestion for a new obamachopper. Autorotate on this Barry.

[org.whodat]

True!!!!

[boroman]

“low pay and tiny cars” ... just like Cuba and Venezuela, which are led by two of Obama’s best socialist buddies.

[Old Professer]

He had me worried near the end of page two; I thought for a minute he was going to go ‘Hinckley’ on us...

And eventually the USSA will drop to the

An excellent article, many people are warning us, only a few are listening.
