Enslaved in Obama's totalitarian rule

It seems that throughout history that when the middle class does well freedom flourishes. But since President Barack Obama has become president his actions show a tendency, in my opinion, to destroy the middle class.

He creates a tension between the races and cultures of which has not been seen since the '70s. In my area I have seen better living in all cultures and a brotherhood among the middle class in the last 20 years or better.

The president's friends in the EPA have raised the requirements in coal and fossil fuels to such an impossible height to maintain that next year it is projected that the average electric bill will go up 80 percent.

The Affordable Care Act should have been executed to the letter on Oct. 1 by law as dictated by the Supreme Court decision. It was illegal what the president did by his mandates to postpone and select sections at will to enforce. It leads to confusion and causes small businesses to contemplate layoffs which will cause another decline in the middle class workforce.

Finally the Keystone pipeline has been approved by agencies and local governments to find nothing more than to begin construction. They are waiting on President Obama to approve it. Why has he been sitting on this? The thousands of jobs provided from this project is staggering.

He does not like the middle class because it values free thinking and the support of our Constitution in our society because it keeps us from enslavement under a totalitarian government.
