Reader’s Write: Obama, Dems not aggressive enough

The Island Now

In answer to Dr. Stephen Morris’ question, why welfare benefits are allowed in liquor stores, casinos, strip clubs, porn shops and adult entertainment venues (and soon to be, medical marijuana dispensaries that will be available) is simple. The employees of these businesses are the last few American industries and jobs that are have not been outsourced.

I wonder if these same Democrats are the same Congressmen that voted against how originally Affordable Care was supposed to be funded. 

Those American companies, who have gotten federal subsidies and still get aid to locate their factories overseas, were to be taxed, which in turn would help pay for the Affordable Care.  

Maybe all those factory workers who lost their jobs and health benefits because their company relocated or outsourced their work overseas might have benefited a little from their lost of jobs. 

Are these the same Democratic Congressmen who just passed the Farm Subsidies of 2014 that cut back on funds allotted to food stamps.

Is there a possible reason other people just electing Obama president that 1 in 7 Americans receive food stamps since 2007? 

The obvious reason would be a bunch of worthless entitlement people who vote Democratic. A less obvious reason might be people losing their jobs with the economic meltdown of 2007. 

Or that some hard-working people make salaries that have to be compensated with food stamps  to help feed their families  because their salaries are below the established federal poverty line. 

As for the loss of jobs President Obama policies have created, is it possible that business saw an opportunity with Affordable Care Health and the 30-hour rule to accelerate the ending of hiring full time workers and eliminating their health benefits. 

I agree with Dr. Morris that President Obama is to be blame for the lost of these jobs as a result of his Affordable Care Act. Blame President Obama for not having the foresight or the insight that companies would start use this as an excuse for eliminating their work force. 

It is inexcusable that President Obama did not recognize that maybe companies do not always do things morally right for their employees cause as they say, all that matters is the bottom line. 

Blame President Obama for lacking the strength that allowed his Affordable Care Act to be watered down that it no longer was representative of what it originally was presented as. 

What kind of jobs are those 55,000 in North Carolina? Are those jobs catering to the former New Yorkers retiring there?   

North Dakota has the lowest unemployment rate at  2.6 percent, but what does that really mean?

Don’t lose any sleep for fear of waking up in country you do not recognize. We lost most our  civil liberties after 9/11 when those liberals allowed the President Bush to push through bills that allowed our country to spy, listen and read our emails in guise of protecting us from terrorists. 

Don’t worry. Whoever will be president or dictator when you wake up, their financial consultants will still have ties to Goldman Sachs and business will still be business in America.
