QuakerOats[h=3]NAM/NFIB Survey: Manufacturers Blame Uncertain Economy For Lack Of Growth.[/h]The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (9/27, Barrett) reports, "A national survey of manufacturers, including Wisconsin companies, has cast a harsh light on the US economy - with executives saying uncertainty in the marketplace has kept them from expanding their businesses and creating jobs." The survey "paints a bleak picture, with 62% of the survey respondents saying US laws, regulations, taxes and fees affect their companies more negatively than foreign competitors. Given what they know now, more than half of the 800 executives surveyed for the National Association of Manufacturers and the National Federation of Independent Businesses said they would not start a business in the current economic climate." Jay Timmons, National Association of Manufacturers president and chief executive officer, said, "Manufacturers have told policy-makers in Washington time and again that uncertainty and a negative business environment is turning the American dream into a nightmare."
The Daily Caller (9/27, Fores) reports, "Fifty-five percent of small business owners say they would not start a new business today, according to a new industry survey. An even larger majority of manufacturers and small business owners, 69 percent, blame the Obama administration's regulatory policies for hurting their sectors of the economy." Timmons said, "There is far too much uncertainty, too many burdensome regulations and too few policymakers willing to put aside their egos and fulfill their responsibilities to the American people."
The Washington Times (9/27, Devaney) reports 55 percent of the survey respondents "are concerned that the regulatory environment is getting worse. Twenty-seven percent say the heavy regulatory environment could lead to companies moving overseas, rising consumer prices (24 percent) and job loss (23 percent)."
On its website, FOX News (9/27) reports Timmons said, "To fix this problem, we need immediate action on pro-growth tax and regulatory policies that put manufacturers in the United States in a position to compete and succeed in an ever-more competitive global economy."
Real business leaders, real decision makers ........... real distraught with obama. -
gutBut but but Quaker that isn't true. We've just been making that up. This administration and their anti-business policies have nothing to do with the underwhelming "recovery".

"[LEFT]Gray told The Daily Caller that the $1.4 billion spent on the Obama family last year is the “total cost of the presidency,” factoring the cost of the “biggest staff in history at the highest wages ever,” a 50 percent increase in the numbers of appointed czars and an Air Force One “running with the frequency of a scheduled air line.”
“The most concerning thing, I think, is the use of taxpayer funds to actually abet his re-election,” Gray, who worked in the Eisenhower administration and for other Republican presidents, said in an interview with TheDC on Wednesday.
“The press has been so slow in picking up on this extraordinary increase in the president’s expenses,” Gray told TheDC.

Chicago politics at its worst. Obama bribing companies with taxpayer money to not issue layoff notices until after the election, violating the WARN act, an act that Obama himself was a champion of. Pathetic. And people will still vote for this fucking idiot. -

But if you are an illegal immigrant, you're not subject to the Obamakare law? Doesn't make any sense to me. So one of the primary drivers of unfunded cost, one of the biggest sectors of uninsured, are exempt?!? -
Manhattan BuckeyeJobless rate rises, yet per my Yahoo! feed another lackluster jobs report is considered a "boost." I'm not sure which I'm disgusted with more, the administration or the bootlicking of the MSM. How far can we move the goalposts for this administration?

QuakerOatsOCTOBER UNEMPLOYMENT UP: 7.9%...
RATE HIGHER THAN WHEN OBAMA TOOK OFFICE...
ROMNEY: 'Sad reminder economy at virtual standstill'...
Sadly, long term unemployment is up again, and remains over 40%, and has been over 40% since December '09. What a record.

I laughed when I read these same reports today. The media blows my mind on what they'll do and say to support and defend this inept administration. If the roles were reversed and Romney was the incumbent POTUS candidate, rest assured that the Obama loving-media would be calling for Romney's head on a 7.9% REPORTED unemployment this close to election day.Manhattan Buckeye;1310450 wrote:Jobless rate rises, yet per my Yahoo! feed another lackluster jobs report is considered a "boost."

gutHow is the Senate Majority Leader chosen if the Senate is split 50/50?
Doesn't seem like Repubs are going to get the votes, but I haven't dove into it. Hopefully it's a 2010-type "surprise". But assuming polls are using a 2010 baseline it does not look good for Repubs. And it makes me feel kind of dirty to root for Repubs. The Tea Party had potential if they weren't such morons.
I may want Harry Reid gone more than Obama, but it seems far more unlikely. I could live with a Repub House & Senate and Obama as POTUS. -

Obama the great uniter is at it again. Take revenge against your fellow citizens. Forget that hope and change. Vote for Obama and you can hope for revenge.

Punishing our enemies. Now there's unifying talk if I've ever heard it. -
gutAgain, it's a pretty stark contrast on the campaign trail. Romney looks presidential, Obama looks like a desperate challenger. And, in general, that mirrors the campaigns and agendas.

I can understand that sentiment, but Obama and his buddies will still have control of the levers and switches of the Justice Dept, EPA, State Dept, Homeland Security, among many others. He will still set the agenda for foreign policy.
If the Dems do in fact hold the Senate, I think Harry Reid has the potential of backing himself into an obstructionist corner, and he won't get away with the stuff he does now. And the voters can get to him and the Dems in 2014, while Obama would be untouchable and probably more brazen and reckless given that he won't have to face voters again.
