The point being ,that it is easy to demonize and vilify the evil “speculators”. They are a red-herring. “Speculators” are investors and that’s is all they are. In a capitalistic society, investing in the futures market is a cornerstone of free market trading. Prices of commodities go up and go down. That not only includes oil, but corn, sugar, cotton, natural gas, pork bellies and other commodities. Are all of these people “speculators”?

This demonetization of our capitalistic economy is rampant in this Obama “reign”. Attack capitalism and villify practices that have made our economy the envy of the world. Make our economic system seem unfair and outdated. Portray the system as tilted and a “bully” yto the average guy. The fact of the matter is, that, while this economic system isn’t perfect, it is responsible for producing the grratrs society inthe history of mankind. Under Obama our economy is patently unfair. only the few are getting ahead. He blames our economic system and not his own policies. He rips a system that has produced the wealthiest society the world has ever sen. Our economic problems are the fault of OUR economic system. It needs to be changed, according to Obama. Please understand that this guy has to be defeated to preserve our life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness.

Let’s put this Obama success story into some perspective here. What Obama did was to undergo a managed bankruptcy. He did the very thing that he is attacking Mitt Romney for doing when he was at Bain. The big difference here is that Romney took all the risk. He did not use taxpayer money for his ventures.

Obama’s plan put tens of thousands out of work by closing dealerships and eliminating a product line (Pontiac). He engineered sales by instituting a cash-for-clunkers boondoogle that took tens of thousands of solid ,reliable, recyclable used cars off the market and had them junked. The result of this action caused a shortage of sound low end vehicles that appeal to the person looking for a second car or the low income buyer.

He also cheated the GM bondholders out of their investment in the company. They didn’t get paid back, and, normally, bondholders are the first to be paid back in a bankruptcy. That was unprecedented. This gives further credence to the idea that Obama pushed for this bailout to keep his union base working so they would support him in the coming reelection.

Let capitalism work. It has only built the greatest nation in the history of mankind. Government needs to get out of the way and let our system take care of itself!

This all sounds good for those people who fall into this category. What about the people who have struggled, sacrificed, and deferred their goals to make payments because they have a sense of integrity, honor, and obligation. Those payments are probably difficult to make, and what makes it worse, is that their homes aren’t worth what they owe. However, these people are making their payments. It would be easy just to walk away, and say the hell with it; “take the home back”. They do not and what do they get for it? NOTHING! The Bank of America is doing just what our government is doing, i.e. REWARDING irresponsible behavior, and punishing hard working, obligated, focused people.

The bottom line here folks is easy to ascertain. Sadly, hard work pays off in 30 years, and laziness pays off immediately

If a battery operated vehicle was efficient, it would be profitable, and it would be produced en mass. People would buy this vehicle willingly without government incentive. An example of a privately researched and developed battery operated vehicle that SELLS is the Toyota Prius. It has been quite successful. It is not subsidized by a government handout. It is a well designed efficient vehicle that offers the motorist sensible range at a fair price. So capitalism works folks; without government interference. Just give the public a quality product at a fair price and they will buy it. That is capitalism not forced socialism. Capitalism not Socialism works. Capitalism has created the richest and most powerful nation in the history of mankind. why let anyone change it?

The reason for all the is simple. The government cannot provide people with what they people really need i.e. upward mobility. Upward mobility can only be provided from within. This means providing opportunity to the folks. Giveaways only lead to dependency. The U.S. Government’s only mandate to its people should be clear and simple. Give people a fair chance at success. That doesn’t mean a guarantee of success, but a chance at it. This is what our government should provide. This should be our government’s only requirement to it’s people. Any attempt at providing social justice is doomed to failure because it fosters dependency.

Democrats have made giveaways a major part of their party platform. All giveaways do is shackle people and chain them to the government dole. The reason why genereation after generation stays on the government dole is because it is too easy to stay on this dole. This is the easy way out. Democrats “provide under” the guise of social justice. This is enslavement plain and simple. People will never break the chain of dependency under Deomcrat governance. we need a government that doesn’t only provide, but gets out of the way and allows for the individual to achieve success based on his own abilities.

Americans have always had a love affair with their cars. We take great pleasure in buying, maintaining, restoring, our vehicles. They are an extension or ourselves. Oftentimes, they define us. This is typically American and it is something that we all should take great pride in. However, this love affair is coming to a brutal end with Mr. Divide and Rule. It was Hope and Change in 2008, but now it appears it is Divide and Rule. If we could only use our own resources in this country, we would have plenty of gas and our economy would be booming. Our love affair could continue. If anyone doubts this guy’s abhorrence to oil, as one has to do is look to his rejection of the Keystone Pipelin project. That would add tens of thousands of jobs and hundreds of millions in sorely needed revenue. Yet, this buffoon says no.

If we continue down this path of stupidity, we can count on $9 per gallon gas. Maybe then, we will start having a love affair with our bicycles. Believe me folks, Europe is a great place to visit, but the lifestyle there cannot compare to ours. We don’t want there brand of government imposing its will on us.

The government’s intrusion in decisions we make in our daily lives is getting out of control. The government wants to tell us what to eat, where to live, where we can send our kids to school, and, now, how much to pay for a car! It is ridiculous. Free will and free choice is the cornerstone of pour democracy. Government only screws things up and makes things more expensive. The typical BHPH car lot will be forced to charge more for the vehicle being sold, if the government starts mandating restrictions on dealers. Lost revenue will only be passed on to the customer in the form of other charges, like administrative fees and acquisition charges. The big banks were recently targeted by the government, and now, every little transaction that is made has a fee assigned to it. Therefore, in a misguided effort at protecting consumers with stifling regulations , the costs are passed on to the little guy like you and me. We do not want that to happen to the BHPH industry. We will all lose, if that happens. The moral of the story is to let the consumer decide for himself ,and let him use his own intelligence to determine what is right or wrong .
