    My question is, if Obama is so bad for business (and he is), where are all his campaign funds coming from? Other than Soros, surely even liberals can't honestly look at this guy and say "he's the one for the job".

    Home Depot co-founder, blasts' Obama:

    [INDENT]
    “He’s not bringing us together. He’s willfully dividing us. He’s petulant. Ronald Reagan would never go into the Oval Office without his jacket on — that’s how much he revered the presidency…
    Divide us and we all lose. And this has got to stop. And if [Obama's] listening, or one of his people are listening, and you can quote me exactly for what I say, he is not acting presidential, he is behaving in a way designed, in my opinion, to divide us and make us look at each other with skepticism, with suspicion.
    That’s the end of America as we know it when that happens.”

    Bad for business? How so? Fiscal and monetary policy has never been friendlier to business.....for as long as Obama has been in power. As for comtributions, Obama received more business campaign contributions than McCain did. Once again, your blind partisan shades that you wear distort your ability to read and learn facts.

    The corporatacracy OWNS the politicians. They own the entire government.

    This board is littered with such people.....people that erroneously think that a selected ruling party will actually make a difference.

    You no doubt refer to BHO's $800 billion in unfruitful porkulus spending, ObamaKare (which businesses everywhere are eager to embrace), and his continual desire to increase taxes just for starters?

    Obama is easily the most business-friendly POTUS I've seen in my lifetime.

    Obama is great for the major corporations that own this country. They are going to make their money anyway, and if they don't they will just get infused with some federal money. Obama and his agenda is terrible for small businesses and working people. With health care plan, tax increases, and environmental agenda, the big companies will just cut workers and raise prices. Their money is safe. It is the small businesses that won't be able to pay the taxes, meet the regulations, or compete when their costs go up, that are in trouble.

    Aw yes....I forgot about the Government Motors bailout. But that was more about the UAW than the Chevy Cruze.

    Not to mention the coming inflation due to a mountain of debt, which is good for prices! And the inevitable increase in interest rates from the mountain of debt will be welcome because it increases tax deductions! And the coming tax hikes from the mountain of debt are no big deal because Obama's economic policies and union schilling are GREAT for business. Honestly, for the life of me I just don't know why no one is hiring.

    Uncertainty is very bad for business, and it's at it highest in years and years. Out-of-control deficit spending, heck not even having a budget, will do that. The problem with the soak the rich and business crowd is most of their gains are coming off investments, which for individuals are capital gains and for businesses the R&D and equipment are justifiable deductions. And you can't just raise those rates to exhorbitant levels without destroying the economy, which is why soaking the rich is nothing but a partisan talking point that can't even work in theory.

    I've said the Republicans deserve plenty of blame, but apparently just like your "research" you only read and understand what appears to support the position you want to take. But some Repubs, many whom were brought into office by Americans fed-up with out-of-control government spending are following that mandate to take a stand, and they're the bad guys and the terrorists? The ruling party won't make a difference, so your answer is to continue flushing money down the toilet? Oh, I know, taxes are a magic bullet, right? So after you raise taxes and raise revenues, where are you going to come up with the $1T to cover the remaining deficit we're still running?

    As opposed to Bush's 800 billion in bailout spending? Believe it or not, the unscrupulous and reckless habit of spending is a temporay boon for businesses. It falls in line with the monetarists....flood the market with worthless paper money to "improve" business dynamics.

    As for Obamakare, again, not so sure that this can be construed as "anti-business" at all. It will be busines as usual once the schit settles.

    No, my take is that Obama has kept the Bush tax cuts, which is most definitely business friendly. Has maintained a prime lending rate which is lower than whale schit, and kept the presses running printing money....which is in fact business friendly...not unfriendly...or at the very least a tactic that is used to expand the economy, for the short term..see above.

    Monetary and fiscal policies are government interventions that are utilized to counter the normal business cycles of capitalism. Low interest rates and free flowing money are used to incite business expansion and growth during bad times. These have been in place since 2008, when Bush was in power. Conversely, when the economy is hopping, then seat belts are applied in order to cool the booming economy. Interest rates fly up and the expansion of the money supply is greatly tightened. The reason for cooling an overheated economy is that inflation must be held in check.....Inflation is an unfortunate bi product of a booming economy.

    SMH at your post. You know absolutely nothing regarding my positions on fiscal matters. Nothing at all. Instead of me writing a manifesto in responding to you....I'll just tell you this. I voted for Ross Perot....and I voted for Ron Paul. Nuff said.

    The coming inflation will only come if the GDP grows. I don't envision a growing GDP until this country gets serious about protecting the "tradable goods" market that is prospering in 3rd world countries. You can kiss goodbye forever any worry about inflation....and a hot economy...as long as the government expands it's departments, (including the bloated military) in keeping the masses employed.

    Has absolutely nothing to do with your complete ignorance of economics, nor do you have much of a grasp over what is really driving where we are today. You don't know my politics either, but it doesn't stop you from making blanket and inaccurate statements. I have many positions that lean either Democrat, Republican, or Libertarian, but mostly my options in the voting booth have been crap.
