This man seems to just intentionally try to make things worse.

Concur. It has become obvious that is the plan. The question is why.
The answer is becoming more obvious too.

They are making moves to feed on the misery they are creating. Now that NC is sinking, SEIU has just announced they are starting a third political party in NC.

The one guy that we really need to get a handle on is Soros.
Americans need to know his role.

Glenn Beck nailed all of this.

KLP,

I believe we have seen the end of the ability of debt to inflate the jobs picture in the US. Debt, debt, debt, debt - spend, spend, spend - anything to keep the bubble inflated - to get elected.

For years the nation has used debt to avoid tough decisions.

IMO - the time for tough decisions has come.

Obama is absolutely desperate to reflate the old status quo. It cannot be done. Bad contracts and bad debts need to be liquidated. That is the purpose of recessions. Obama is spending trillions to try to prevent what is necessary.

Bob

"The CARS program achieved the objectives set out by Congress to increase automotive sales and aid the environment. In just a few short weeks of sales, nearly 680,000 older vehicles were replaced by new, more fuel-efficient vehicles. The nation's economy benefited immediately from this stimulus program, which caused a distinct upward movement in GDP and created or saved tens of thousands of jobs at a very critical time in the recovery process." CARS.gov.
