Obama spells out a plan to create jobs: M-O-R-O-N!
Tuesday, December 8th, 2009
So today, Obama outlined YET ANOTHER stimulus plan to help create jobs for citizens across the country. He is quoted saying that “we must spend our way out of this recession”. Well, yes, that sounds like a fantastic idea, but why aren’t we using the money from the previous passed $787 billion stimulus plan? Did this money just disappear? Or did it find its way into lawmakers pockets? Nobody knows for sure, but we do know that it hasn’t been spent on anything of value.
With this new stimulus plan, Obama proposed for new spending on major highways, bridges, and larger tax breaks for small business owners. Obama also stated that “we avoided the depression many feared”. Well, yes Obama, that holds true as of right now, but if we just continue to bury ourselves deeper and deeper into debt, things can only get worse.
Since the onset of our nations “recession”, over 7 million Americans have lost their jobs. Now Obama, do you think that your new stimulus plan can actually provide ALL of these Americans with jobs? I have a feeling that is highly doubtful. Sure, planning to build and repair highways, bridges, and other infrastructures could possibly help create some new jobs, but lets be real. The citizens who already have jobs in these fields will do the proposed work and most likely there will only be a handful of people hired on TEMPORARILY to help complete the work and once the work is done, they will be fired YET AGAIN.
As far as giving small businesses deeper tax breaks, it sounds nice, but lets be real here as well. Most of these small business owners will just reap the benefits of the tax breaks and stuff more money in their pockets and will not hire on additional employees. All in all, this is just another retarded idea, that will only hurt our country and fill our jobless citizens with false hopes.
