In the follow up to the Obama embarrassment of the day before, it seems that the obnoxious Othello believes that mere machines have created the disaster that rightly belongs to Obama and the liberal left.. This has to rank as one of the all-time best suspects/victims in the non-stop Obama blame-a-thon that the nation has gamely had to suffer through since early 2009..
In the last day or so, it would appear that the liberals believe that laughter is the best medicine for the actual “victims” of their destruction of the economy. Unfortunately, this “medicine” will ONLY be available to you through the Obama “Health Scare Scam” of socialized medicine, so it will not only be ineffective, like everything that Obama has forcibly “taken over”, it won’t work either.. By the way, it will also cost you at least a month’s worth of salary to obtain.. That is, if you are one of the six people left in America with jobs due to the socialist scorched earth politics of the liberals since 2006..
Shortly after “cutting up” the collected collectivists (otherwise known as the “Not Ready For Shovel Ready Players..”) that are a part of the “Council on Jobs and Competitiveness” (which has been as effective as the Obama “Council on Capitalism and Common Sense”..) Brace yourselves for this but Obama said that “machines” are responsible for the dreadful state of the statist’s economy..
“Businesses have learned to become much more efficient with a lot fewer workers..” This whole “business” business seems to have Obama stymied to say the least.. After reading that quote from Fox News, (“Revenge of the Machines?” 06/16/2011) it is easy to understand Obama’s bewilderment when it comes to properly placing the blame for all of his handiwork..
Firstly, businesses have had NO CHOICE but to “become much more efficient with a lot fewer workers” SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE of Obama and his “Great Leap Forward” programs.. The idea of “efficiency” as well has the Obama liberals all scratching their unwashed heads with confusion. “Efficiency” is the polar opposite of what ANY liberal government seeks to install/inflict and Obama’s Democratic disaster has proven to be no different than those that have preceded him. Obama has personally forwarded this “a lot fewer workers” idea which businesses have had to negotiate in order to survive at all..
Within a normal business, unencumbered with the manacles of Marxism, “efficiency” DOESN’T mean FEWER employees. Employees are constantly being trained and retrained as the business expands and when these expansions are “productive” (another word that completely confuses the left not unlike, “bar soap” or “ morals”..) MORE employees are needed in order to keep up with the additional demand. The liberal suffocation of capitalism explains their Marxist mystification with these concepts..
“You see it when you go to the bank and you use the ATM, you don’t go to a bank teller..” If Obama insists upon simplifying every thing that he discusses, lets simplify the Obama’s simplification even further..
According to Obama, the “ATM” at the bank causes you to force the bank to fire a teller. Never mind that the mechanical “teller” can be used at midnight and any other time after “banker’s hours”, eliminating the long lines that one would have to endure earlier in the day. Never mind that since Obama has “taken over”, the real reason that the bank is laying off tellers is because Obama has redistributed everyone’s money for them, making the bank’s existence moot.. Never mind that no one needs a bank when Obama has seen to it that no one is working..
So within Obama’s child-like equation, our “teller” has lost their job due to the appearance of the dreaded “ATM”.. Someone (several people in fact..) needs to manufacture this “machine”. Someone needs to deliver and install this “machine”. Someone (several people in fact..) need to repair and upgrade the “machine” periodically, someone (see above..) needs to make the computer programs that the technician tweaks.. These “upgrades” make the “machine” more efficient and more effective. (Both concepts are completely foreign to everyone within the Obama caliphate..) Utilizing the “Obama thought process”, (Is there such a thing?) we can now say that the “ATM” has CREATED more jobs than Obama has and it has done so WITHOUT bankrupting the United States in the process..
As “mechanized” as the nation has become, Obama still hasn’t been able to figure out how to actually “create” jobs, other than the jobs which have been “saved or created” within his fertile fascist mind.. Planted deep within the parched progressive soil of the liberal terra infirma, simply having a pool of thirty million job seekers will make jobs appear out of thin air.. In order to try to prove this disjointed theory, Obama has obligingly made those thirty million job seekers available and everyone is still waiting for these thirty million McJobs to appear as promised back when the Scamulous was merely percolating behind jaundiced eyes of the Obama administration.
Carrying this further, Obama now believes that machines take jobs. Therefore, less machines SHOULD equal the need for more jobs.. (Can you see the Obama “logic” unraveling at this point?) Using my equation from above, the “need” for more jobs is irrelevant since Obama has already destroyed nearly ten million jobs himself.. Less “machines” combined with the Obama “NO jobs for anyone except those within my liberal government” would effectively make another twenty million or so Americans unemployed to go along with the ten or so million that Obama has already victimized..
All of this comes during the alleged Obama “recovery summer”, remember that bit of fascist fluff? The greasy little harpy who is now the Democratic ChairMAN, Debbie WasserMAN said that the Democrats “own the economy”.. Yes you do and after putting America into receivership, I am glad that one of the harebrained heretics of the left is finally telling the truth in public.. After clumsily stepping onto this landmine, she said that they also “own the beginning of the turnaround..” We have yet to see this “turnaround”, “beginning” or otherwise, so I would suppose that within the creative craniums of the idiot left, there is no statute of limitations on when they can claim their “victory” regardless of its veracity..
Adding to the perpetual confusion of the liberal talking points, we again hear from the Marxist Medusa, Nancy “My income went up 62% last year, how’d you do?” Pelosi.. The flailing of the left has become the sad equivalent of Quixote forever tilting at windmills.. The Progressive Prune yesterday accused the Republicans of “economic inaction after nearly six months in power in the House..” Wow.. I thought that the left “owned” the economy? Which is it today? Do you “own” it or is the “Marxist Malaise” the fault of the “inaction” of someone else? It seems so silly to even ask, doesn’t it..
The alleged “inaction” from the Republicans is NOTHING compared to the “historic” ACTION of the LEFT in the SIX YEARS that they have had complete control of EVERY element of spending and spending and spending and spending. Since 2006, the left has purposefully and intentionally driven the economy into the embankment.. In hindsight, even just a bit more “inaction” on the part of the pathetic progressives over the last SIX YEARS and things might not be as bad as they are today.. Completing the socialist circle of Democratic denial, Pelosi said, “Democrats are focused on creating jobs, strengthening the middle class..” That is as idiotic as Pelosi claiming that Democrats are “focused on hygiene and intellectual honesty..”
The next performer in the three-ring collectivist circus was Jay Carney the media spokesweasel of the administration. Yesterday he claimed that “the president is taking enormously seriously the hardships Americans are enduring..” He should take it “seriously”, he and the collectivist caliphate have “ownership” of every element of America’s suffering.. “It’s patently obvious that the president is focused on the economy..” Maybe if he would be a little LESS “focused” on the economy, it might have a chance to actually “recover” from the Bolshevik body blows that he has administered..
