Obama Warns of Loss of Millions of Jobs

'The Chairman' announced yesterday that the U.S. could see the loss of millions of jobs in the coming months.

And I was led to believe by Obama, the Democrats, and President Bush that this was the very scenario the gargantuan government bailout of Wall Street was supposed to prevent.

As it turns out, investors are not particularly impressed with government meddling after all.

But we can fully expect government meddling to continue under Obama. This is the very scenario that allows Leftists such as The Chairman to come swooping in to 'save the day' after convincing Americans that only the government can solve the problems in the economy.

Uninformed citizens the world over always fall for Leftist propaganda when nations face hard economic times. The most oppressive and dangerous governments ever to exist on earth were precipitated by deep economic upheaval.

Russia prior to the Bolshevik Revolution, Cuba before the Castro takeover, and Germany before Hitler and the Nazis all stand as modern examples of this phenomenon. The country sinks into dire economic and social upheaval. A silvery-tongued orator arises that promises hope and change and better days.

The people follow blindly, only to find that once such silvery-tongue orators are firmly ensconced in power, their true colors emerge.

Thus, in Russia 25 million citizens are slaughtered by the new Communist regime. In Cuba, Castro uses Che Guevara to systematically murder thousands of Cubans who resist the new Communist dictatorship. And in Germany, Hitler and the Nazis arrest, imprison, and murder 6 million Jews and 5 million political dissidents.

Obama has come to power midst the most troubled economic times since Jimmy Carter. But even then the government did not react by seizing partial ownership of banks, bailing out large corporations, or considering ownership in U.S. automakers, which even then were plagued by poor quality products and heavy competition from Japan.

Even FDR didn't try to do these things in the midst of the Great Depression.

But, The Chairman is dependent on crisis to consolidate power. Thus, the 'crisis' is made to sound worse than it is, courtesy of his new Pravda--the mainstream media. Dire warnings must be issued of the loss of 'millions of jobs' unless big government comes to the rescue.

And to those who may think I am engaging in more Obama-phobia or hysteria, I would remind you that The Chairman's own new Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, candidly stated several months ago that it would be silly to allow a golden opportunity like an economic nosedive to slip by them.

Such dire financials straits, said Emanuel, are the perfect opportunity for Leftists, or 'progressives' as they are now called, to seize more government power and vastly expand the role of government in our daily lives.

In short, the present economic downturn is coldly viewed in purely political terms and is nothing more than an excuse for statists to seize more control of the country and limit more of our liberties.
