President Obama Restates His Commitment To Small Business As Key To Economic Recovery

[glassroots1]

Whatever!! You want people to go out and get more loans just to be in more debt...oh yeah, that will solve our economic downfall......what a crock of shit! Health care.......another crock of shit! We should have universal health care for everyone!

[JixMa]

I love seeing all the one or two stars Obie's videos get! We're so sick of him and all his bullshit, that this is our only real outlet of dissatisfaction.

[integral]

That's because all the tiny brained teabagger types have subbed MoxNews videos and come here and express their impotent rage by clicking the one star.

Kinda tragic and sad.

[AgeisLiberatisLuces3]

do you ever talk about anything important?

[sinitskyd]

Thank you, President Obummah. You should definitely get an Oscar, in addition to your Nobel Piece Prize. You are the best actor this country has ever known.

[integral]

oh stop whining

[AgeisLiberatisLuces3]

we know that obama is committed to large corporations and banks.

[RodgersRevolution]

Prove it.

[whoo689]

If given a choice between having free employer-based insurance that only my employer can choose (and I have no say) or getting a raise to buy my own insurance, I'd EASILY choose the latter. It's common sense!

[RodgersRevolution]

Yet if your employer is paying for the insurance you can receive you will not get a raise. That is reality.

[ReliableInsider]

Why not just have a public option? Then we don't have be so dependent on the kindheartedness of corporations.

I've spoken to some Republicans and they say that kindheartedness is not really something you would expect from the typical American corporation.

Corporations actually provide no health insurance -whatsoever-, when they can get away with it.

[whoo689]

Lol, I love how Obama inserts "crushing costs of healthcare" at the beginning, like it's EMPLOYERS' job to give every employee free healthcare. Oh, please. I'm so sick of employees mooching off employers for all these benefits. Why not, instead, encourage employers to PAY THEIR WORKERS BETTER?? Stupid Democrats. Then the people will be able to buy their own healthcare and open their own mutual funds and whatnot.

[RodgersRevolution]

So what you are saying is employers should pay employees more so the employees can buy their own insurance? OK how much should the employers pay? After all insurance costs vary according to how healthy a person is. This is from a stupid democrat. Go ahead and fudge some numbers for me.

[ReliableInsider]

whoo689,

There's nothing preventing employers from paying their workers more. They just don't -feel- like doing so.

[ReliableInsider]

The best way to give employers an incentive to pay their employees more is to make a public option available. Then employees can just leave and work somewhere better.

Higher wages. Better coverage. Happier employees. I wonder why the Republican Party doesn't support -that-!

[whoo689]

The bias against big business is just uneconomic and absurd from President Obama. Even Clinton wasn't this ridiculous on economics! He realized the importance of business and promoted a 3rd way, not liberal big gov't or more spending. The Third Way was MUCH more effective, too.

We need balance among support for big and small business, not bias towards one or the other from our presidents. Both are crucial to the economy. What Obama should be emphasizing is investment for STARTUPS.

[whoo689]

Forcing businesses to pay for expensive healthcare for lots of people is what is KILLING them, you idiot Obama. That's part of the reason the Big 3 are screwing up. They'd be much more profitable if they didn't have those burdens. Foreign car companies don't have to pay those kinds of expenses, so it's harder to compete with ones like toyota.

[RodgersRevolution]

Businesses are not forced to pay for insurance. Many businesses have no insurance. Toyota would not sell a car if Americans bought American products. That is the actual problem. You won't win on this page.

[AgeisLiberatisLuces3]

the bailout is proof enough.

[RodgersRevolution]

Really? 9% more houses sold last quarter than what was expected. That is a nice increase. Do you have anything else in your little book of fantasies?

[AgeisLiberatisLuces3]

any other meaningless statistics? what about his attacks of the chamber of commerce? have fun with your life man.

[RodgersRevolution]

Umm? Learn to phrase your questions better. And a little insight than attack. What happened?

[whoo689]

I'd rather make the bet on fast job creation rather than just job creation for those who create 65% but do it slowly. Which do you think will get us to recovery faster? Be honest

[whoo689]

What a fucking moron of a president. His lack of real economic knowledge is stunning. He thinks small business will "get us to recovery." Please! Big business is what drives the economy long-term. Small business only works on a SMALL scale, like local and state. It can't run the entire economy. You can't have economies of scale with large R&D divisions and advanced technologies with small business alone.

[whoo689]

Small businesses responsible for "65%" of job creation is a bullshit statistic. Sure, it may be true to an extent, but it's already been debunked the way small business advocates use it. Just b/c 65% of job creation is due to small business DOESN'T MEAN big business has only a very limited role to play. And so what if it's 65%? Small businesses can only hire a few people every so often! Big business can hire LOTS of people at one time. Duhhhh

[integral]

Thank goodness we have the teabagging genius of whoo689 to tell us just how wrong the POTUS is.

Dang, whoopy, don't you ever get tired of being wrong?

[ReliableInsider]

whoo689,

I think the point is that big corporations fire as many people as they hire.

Small businesses create the jobs. Which is why Democrats favor them.

[deveousdevil]

small business are responsible for 65% of job creation??

yea, and that's why Bush gave tax cuts to big business, typical.

[Orionx26]

Tax cuts to any business makes things cheaper for us. He did cut taxes for the little guy too. That 600 hundred dollar check you got in the mail wasn't too shabby. But then again, Bush is the antichrist of civil rights and liberty.

[boots920]

Guess who's Michael Moore's agent ?

Rahm Emanual's Brother ?

Notice Mr. Moore 's quality of propaganda .

Notice the USA has way too many sandbox wars going on?

Notice the level of corruption in the banking sector has come down to blatant counterfeiting.

Communism has never come to power in a country that was not disrupted by war or corruption, or both.

John F. Kennedy

[boots920]

It is the absolute right of the State to supervise the formation of public opinion.

Joseph Goebbels

[integral]

Oh bootsy, you just can't resist the urge to display your ignorance.

How sad.

[boots920]

Observation:

Since 1971 the US dollar hasn't been backed by sweet fuck all so there's trillions of dollars out there backed with nothing.

The Sandbox wars have been going on for over 8 years, and yep no taxes raised to pay for the bull shit.

Here's the kicker not one world leader points out that the US dollar is about to become toilet paper.

It all ends badly...the sheople won't even know what hit them.

[windis101]

the puppet talks

[RESET1776]

OK, so if your a huge company that was being run into the ground with bad management. Well you can get a "bailout" of taxpayer money. But, when it comes to the real taxpayers and small business that you admit employee's over 65% of this country. Well, you say "loan" 8 times, "credit" 6 times, and "finance" 3 times. All in under 4 and a half min. While pushing the healthcare bill. Wow, thanks...................

[mrbhave]

The bailout was Bush's idea. So both parties are guilty of shafting us "little guys."

[RESET1776]

I agree 100%. I am just SO sick of the government handing over our money to their buddies. Then when it comes to the real people of America we get " I think we maybe able to help you out with a loan" Then that hangs with a IF for the fact that you already have a great job with a good solid income. Those people are few and far between these days. VS. the people that have taken the risk and fallen down. Now they dont have the income or credit to pull these loans he talks about. It's just sad!

[Orionx26]

Haha, don't you think that the profits they made from the bailouts should be given back to the people? Wouldn't that be crazy? The American people made a profit from something the Government did? That would mean they really thought about us.

[RESET1776]

I feel they sould pay back the bailout money ASAP. But at the same time as much as I hate corp's that got that money. I feel that the government is WAY overstepping their bound and treating these companies that took bailout money as if it had bought them. Only the owners should be able to say what pay and bonus's should be. Out of control government is what we have here. They feel they own and control EVERYTHING! By law or tax they find a way to control and take their share as they see fit.

[Orionx26]

I completely agree. The bailouts should have never happened. I just think that its a tragedy that the money most likely just disappeared. The whole socializing loses and privatizing profits gets to me though. If it was up to me the bailouts should of never happened. But now that it did the American people should benefit from the way Government is expanding. I'd much rather they do the right thing and Limit themselves.

[lellis61]

We are in the process of building a larger music store and plan to hire several people.  Thanks to the stimulus, it was possible. SBA fees waived were 30K.

[WunderMaus]

Too big to fail financial corporations get all the money they want with no accountability while small businesses get lip service. 98% of the people are sick of lies the other 2% have it made. The extremes of wealth distribution has never been more obscene. The system is rigged. It's broken and there is nothing but more of the same ahead. Stop pandering to the peoples hopes and start delivering fundamental, systemic change. End corp personhood and outlaw lobbyist funded bribery.

[Pvtjamesryan2]

Keeping printing that money Obama!!!

[twilightawakening]

.......It's a good time to invest in gold now LOL

[Pvtjamesryan2]

lol

the hell with that. You have to be really on the ball when it comes to investing in previous metals.

Hey twilight, have you seen the dollar index lately?

Look at it before Obama came into office!! Its like.........................K­ABOOOM!! It was up around 88 or so and after Obama it's teetering on the edge of 75.

Looks like that change wasn't so great after all. Not all change is for the better. lol

I for one would like to keep my money.

[twilightawakening]

Exactly. The dollar is being raped and money is being stolen from is as it decreases in value every second. Time to invest in another currency.

[Pvtjamesryan2]

Which alternate currency do you recommend?

[boots920]

Is stated in the US Constituiton:

Gold and Silver and Copper - Its never lost value in 6000 years. Fiat money systems have failed EVERY SINGLE TIME.

People lose all their life's savings in a blink of an eye.

When did the US government repeal US constitution money? They haven't its been a scam since 1913.

[Orionx26]

Gold or silver

[Orionx26]

you are absolutely right. Obama helped Bush deflate our dollar. I'm investing in gold or silver. Which every is cheaper. You will never truely lose your money if you put it there.

[BeantownJim]

What arrogance To tell banks to loan monies That is what caused the financial meltdown in the first place!
