Obama and his lack of business acumen

Hi

The president acts through his appointed cabinet members, staff and aides. Mr Obama has picked some real stinkers. The major problem is the spending of the stimulus.

First, there is half a billion given to a solar power company which goes bankrupt about a year after getting the money. The rationale was that the stimulus was given to save or create jobs. With the bankruptcy 1100 jobs were lost. A waste of our money.

Next we learn about a car company that manufactures electric cars. Another half billion dollars. As soon as the company got the money the company made plans and is now slated to open a plant in Finland. Finland gets the jobs, the US (we) get the shaft.

Another example of where our money goes is the truck stop in Virginia. Diesel trucks are manufactured so that it is more economical to run the engine all night rather than shut off the engine. This company had an idea whereby the diesel engines could be shut off and started easily in the morning. The company could not get the system to work and now the property where the truck stop was planned is now for sale.

This is a pattern, too many bad decisions by our bureaucrats. There decisions should not be forced upon the taxpayer by these bumbling oafs,but rather the decision should be made using good common sense, business sense and practical usages.

Why we seem to feel that when a person gets elected to congress or appointed to an administrative bureaucracy that person acquires business acumen. These examples show this is not the case. We need to root these people out of government.

Please remember to pray for our ervice people.
GOD Bless
