The damage will keep getting worse

The hope and change mantra seems to have turned into one of the seven deadly sins — envy. That’s what the president espouses with his race and class warfare. It’s hard to believe how many people can be duped by obvious lies and exaggerations.

He has surrounded himself with like-minded people as advisers (czars). I once commented that the Harvard Business School should lose its accreditation because the Keynesian economic emphasis made the economy worse than if nothing had been done. I also think Harvard Law School should lose its accreditation. How does a Constitutional lawyer (the president) not know the Supreme Court’s Constitutional duties and responsibilities?

The idea of entitlements has changed under this administration. Social Security and Medicare fall into that political category. If you pay all your life into these, you should be entitled to their benefits. Many do not pay anything into these and should not be entitled to any benefit. Under this administration the war on poverty has turned into an entitlement as well as unemployment payments for those who lost their jobs.

I am beginning to think that everything this president has done is a deliberate attempt to fundamentally damage the United States. His actions don’t match his orations. Example: wean us off foreign oil by giving Brazil $500 million and guaranteeing we will be their best customer. When did Brazil become a part of the United States?

By the time the elections roll around the other deadly sins will become a part of his campaign dialogue. The price of gas, loss of jobs, housing mess and economic decline may become worse and irreparably damaged if this president is re-elected.
