President-elect Barack Obama on Saturday revealed in his radio address ways that he will save the economy:
That is why I have asked my economic team to develop an economic recovery plan for both Wall Street and Main Street that will help save or create at least two and a half million jobs, while rebuilding our infrastructure, improving our schools, reducing our dependence on oil, and saving billions of dollars.
How convenient to “save” 2.5 million jobs. So if not even one job is created, it appears to be a success. What a &*(#@%& loser! He can’t even admit that he will NOT be able to create jobs!
First, we will launch a massive effort to make public buildings more energy-efficient. Our government now pays the highest energy bill in the world. We need to change that. We need to upgrade our federal buildings by replacing old heating systems and installing efficient light bulbs. That won’t just save you, the American taxpayer, billions of dollars each year. It will put people back to work.
No job creation needed there. Just use common sense. Install energy efficient light bulbs. Turn off the lights when not in use. Why not? He said that to solve our dependence on oil, all we had to do was inflate our tires. What a moron!
Second, we will create millions of jobs by making the single largest new investment in our national infrastructure since the creation of the federal highway system in the 1950s. We’ll invest your precious tax dollars in new and smarter ways, and we’ll set a simple rule – use it or lose it. If a state doesn’t act quickly to invest in roads and bridges in their communities, they’ll lose the money.
All this does is encourage the states to build useless projects (the bridge to nowhere) so that they do not lose the money that the taxpayers are paying them. STOP WASTING OUR MONEY!
As we renew our schools and highways, we’ll also renew our information superhighway. It is unacceptable that the United States ranks 15th in the world in broadband adoption. Here, in the country that invented the internet, every child should have the chance to get online, and they’ll get that chance when I’m President – because that’s how we’ll strengthen America’s competitiveness in the world.
Sure, every child should have the chance to get online and view pornography, engage in online gambling, participate in chat rooms with sex predators. That’s a bright idea, Obama! Besides, the Internet doesn’t strengthen competitiveness for businesses, it weakens it. As a consumer, why should I buy from a brick-and-mortar store, when online retailers continuously drop their prices to the point of suicide. Good for consumers, bad for businesses.
In addition to connecting our libraries and schools to the internet, we must also ensure that our hospitals are connected to each other through the internet. That is why the economic recovery plan I’m proposing will help modernize our health care system – and that won’t just save jobs, it will save lives. We will make sure that every doctor’s office and hospital in this country is using cutting edge technology and electronic medical records so that we can cut red tape, prevent medical mistakes, and help save billions of dollars each year.
Well, there goes your precious privacy. No longer will your private life remain private. Your medical records will be able to be accessed from an online database (probably in Washington DC) that will contain too much private information.
I liked Ronald Reagan; he accomplished a lot of great endeavors for our beloved country and the world at large. In fact, I take to heart Nancy Reagan’s policy, especially when it comes to the War on Obama: JUST SAY NO!
