Big Businesses Like Free Money; Duh

Bloggers get a bad rep. They voice their thoughts and concerns online to typically a much smaller amount than traditional sources of news such as papers & televisions, yet their sources and legitimacy are subject to much higher scrutiny.

The Boston Globe’s Peter Canellos just wrote an article “Big Business transfers its loyalty, money to the Democrats”. According to Canellos, the Obama administration's promise of government action to protect companies during this economic crisis/meltdown will make The Democrat Party the Party of Big Business.

The article then claims the Iraq war was responsible for unsettling the global markets
It began in 2003…It is nearly 2009….Yes I know policies & actions may take years to show relevance…..but if this were the case democrats would have been screaming about the potential impact of the war on the global economy years ago…..journalists should not make up reasons for the world’s economic problems and write them as they are fact

The article then claims conservative’s social issues alienated Wall Street executives long before the economic crisis
Really? I didn’t realize those on Wall Street abandoned the Republican Party because of their strong belief of a woman’s right to choose…are you kidding me?? If you are a fiscal conservative…you don’t jump parties over social issues

The article then reasons that even though the $700 Billion bailout (its been rough trying to sort out just which billion dollar big business bailout came from whom, there is just so much taxpayer money flying out of taxpayers’ pockets and landing in those of the CEOS of failed big businesses….rough I tell ya) was designed and backed by a Republican President…..the party will most definitely voice opposition and thus alienate themselves even further from BIG BUSINESS.

The article then expresses surprise over Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, with his Michigan and businessman roots, for expressing his opposition to the automaker bailouts. Hmm….couldn’t you then conclude Mitt wants’ to see the automakers succeed and sever their ties with the ridiculous money grubbing unions???? A Chapter 11 would allow them to restructure & lower their costs instead of throwing cash at them while they obviously cannot turn a profit. Democrats in this instance are not aligning with BIG BUSINESS they are aligning with BIG UNIONS…that is a BIG DIFFERENCE!

The article then claims the Republican Party will then align itself with low income voters, and abandon their party’s premise of tax-cuts and Democrats will then acquire a sudden desire for lower taxes…which leads to are you ready for this an OBAMA Presidency resembling Ronald Reagan’s.
So let me see here…the war in Iraq caused the economic crisis, conservative values have alienated those in the financial industry, the belief of personal fiscal responsibility has alienated big business & Mitt Romney is the only businessman from up North who disagrees with the bailout…………all of these factors will make the Democrat Party the party of lower taxes & Obama a replicate of Reagan.

Big Business may currently align itself with the Democrat Party because well…they’re giving out $ & lots of it! Would you be a big business if you declined some of that free taxpayer/government $$...if all your competitors are collecting wouldn’t you be a foolish business not to hop on board the governments gravy train? Toot…Toot…next stop on the Taxpayer funded Obama Express…..The Federal Reserve!

Oh & Go Vote Saxby!
