Obama’s political bullying starts and ends with one thing—$$$

All politicians vote on policy with there wallets. Well Many do, there are some self made millionaires that vote with an ethical conscience but many vote by the almighty dollar. No leader of this great country ever used this fact to manipulate things to go his way by bullying using America’s livelyhood as a weapon…until.
Lets look at the facts
Fact 1) Democrats lose a KEY vote in Mass. and Obama the next day wants smaller and gov’t controlled banks.
Fact 2) Corporations win a huge ruling in the Supreme court and the next day during the state of the union, Obama cries foul.
Fact 3) Every economic sign points to recovery except 1***(will get to this) and Obama wants another stimulus package for job creation, where his first one cost us a few billion dollars and a few million jobs???

So what is next. I like Bernanke smart man, good in this position but one weakness, he is not stong in the confrontational department. Easily bullied. Not an accident that Obama would like him to stick around.
Here it is the one negative economic sign for 2010***POLITICAL POLICY.
Now is there weakness, corruption and greed in corporate america, Yes. As much as political america, not even close. Ohh, politicians have to answer to the people who vote, but corporations have to listen to shareholders who scream because of their wallets not their emotions. Corporations got publically spanked in 08, when did the politicians?
Follow the money, take out the emotions, I post some interesting fixes soon on health care, the economy, and tax reform. I will also point out current uses of economic bullying.
Remember 1 thing, we owe everything to our capitalistic forefathers, and that is why freedom rings.
