39. there is nothing saying we have to agree on this
Edited on Sun Nov-15-09 07:08 PM by liberal_at_heart
You are entitled to your opinion. I'm not 100% against Obama or even Congress. I think they have done some good. They funded Cobra and food stamps. I think that Obama probably saved us from a second great depression. But I feel they are not doing enough fast enough. This job summit should have happened when he first took office. We have been bleeding jobs since 2008. This is not new news. He was aware of this when he took office. And why hasn't he done anything to ensure that the very banks we saved actually loan money to small business owners? Why did he abandon the regulations that he was planning on putting on banks? If there is more financial aid available why are students still having a hard time getting loans? Where are the green jobs? Where are the jobs that were going to rebuild our roads, our electrical grid? Why is 2010 the magical number? Why couldn't these jobs have been available during the first, second, or even third quarter of the year? How about the first quarter of next year? Like I said I'm not 100% against Obama or even Congress. I don't think Obama gets enough credit for saving us from a second great depression. But for some reason the red tape of Washington has hung things up in a time when we can't afford for things to be hung up.
