Billions in fact. Obama's massive cronyism at unprecedented levels. The corruption that Obama's lavish cronyism enabled has given the green movement in our country a huge setback in terms of credibility and viability. How many more easter eggs does he and Chu have hidden to surprise us with? How many more bankruptcies? How many more missing millions?
When people voted for "Hope and Change" I wonder if they even guessed just how much for the worse it was going to be.
Considering Bush paid Halliburton millions for work in Iraq they didn't even do, and then lost pallets of money I don't see how this is terrible. Supporting green companies and renewable energy has been his policy from the beginning. If business people took loans and then didn't perform well that's not Obama's fault- it's business' fault just like everything else.
The definition of crony capitalism is (according to wiki): Crony capitalism is a term describing a capitalist economy in which success in business depends on close relationships between business people and government officials. It may be exhibited by favoritism in the distribution of legal permits, government grants, special tax breaks, and so forth. By that definition all green energy has always been crony capitalism. Green energy cannot compete without favorable tax breaks and government grants. Green energy can only exist by special relationship with government. The left has always been the party of crony capitalism.
Oh, shove it. Bush ain't in office anymore. This admin is the most corrupt, the most divisive, the most spending, the most Constitution defying, and the most dishonest I've ever seen and I couldn't even imagined one so evil. Yes evil. Obama is a socialist and a Marxist. He has NO respect for America, the office, or the people. It's all about him. Just him and his Marxist, anti-capitalist agenda. He's dangerous. Fundamental change - he wasn't kidding. War on class War on capitalism War on the Constitution Marxism Fundamental change: He told us, and we didn't get it. I do now.
This isn't business people not performing well. It's outright money laundering. They had no product to sell and funneled the money right out the back door to Obama's campaign donors. You are excusing one bad act with another. Once again the mantra surfaces Halliburton Halliburton Cheney Cheney BUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSHHHHHHH! It doesn't matter how long Bush has been out of office, It will always be thus until the last BDS sufferer dies of old age.
Good question. I don't think the Constitution authorized that. In fact, the Constitution didn't authorize the federal reserve either. And there ya go.
The problem we have is that we have raised a generation of losers on the "self esteem" plant. They don't believe that hard work should be rewarded. They have class envy because they were taught "everyone is a winner". They don't like Capitalism because it also rewards hard work and initiative. They believe the constitution should be re-written They think Communism might be a good thing after They are beta male losers. They were not taught that winning requires hard work.
