The premise is all wrong. The idea upon which Obama's "job creation ideas" is based is erroneous. Setting aside the fact that this man wouldn't even have BOTHERED attempting to address this issue if it weren't for the fact that he was politically castrated in November of 2010 and this subject (and many others) was forced upon him, his "nanny state" approach to addressing national challenges is wrong.
Not everyone believes as I, though. I recently watched news coverage of a town hall meeting between a representative and his constituents where I saw and heard people in the audience screaming out "where are the jobs!?!?". It saddened me to see that there are people...lots of people...who would even think to ask that question of our government, on the same token reaffirming to themselves and those who hear them that they believe it is the government's DUTY to provide jobs for people. Fact of the matter is, it is not and never has been the government's duty to create and/or provide jobs. The correct question for them to have shouted out would have been along the lines of "when will the government get out of the way of free enterprise!?!?". Government itself is not good at very many things, nor was it ever intended to be; history has borne this out. A whole slough of jokes and stereotypes exist centered around government, government jobs, and government workers for good reason. When applied beyond its constitutional boundaries, government tends to be bloated, inefficient, wasteful, poor at self-monitoring, and over-compensating. These things promote apathy and corruption among its labyrinthal hierarchy of agencies and departments, the results of which all roll downhill and onto the plates of We the People. It was never designed to be Big Brother, and when it attempts to behave as such fails miserably and heavily burdens the dynamics of our Republic. So for Barack Hussein Obama to approach the currently dismal jobs situation in this nation with the idea that more government is the answer to our prayers is simply the absolute opposite to what the true solution is. I don't question his motives (though I do believe the conservative House majority and his upcoming ousting ARE two of his primary motivating factors), but I do condemn his tried-and-failed philosophies and the fact that despite the clear evidence of their failure, the man continues to mindlessly cling to them. My hope, as it always is before the man speaks, is that he will show a true heart to want to help and not simply use his audience as an opportunity to posture, lecture, cast blame, and ask us all to buy in to his idea of yet BIGGER government. Historically, though, he has utilized his speeches to do the latter and in so doing has conditioned the majority of us to subconsciously (and consciously) prejudge him. I fall into this category, and harbor zero hope that tonight's speech will be anything more than a mosaic of recycled presidential rhetoric.
Mr. President, if all you offer tonight as a solution is more of what has proven to be a detriment and hindrance to true prosperity in this nation, then please save your breath for your 2012 concession speech. We spoke loudly in town hall meetings before you rammed Obamacare down our throats, we spoke even MORE loudly in November 2010 when we flattened your political tires and disabled you from causing further harm to our nation, and still you would not listen. As the very existence of the loud, violent, hateful rhetoric from the minority left so clearly prognosticates, we will most assuredly dethrone you in the presidential election of 2012 and end one of the most dismal, leaderless presidencies this country has ever known in our lifetime. Your opportunity to listen has long since passed and you are doing nothing more at this point than biding your time and reinjecting wasted cash into the various ad agencies and marketing firms as you futilely flounder about on your campaign tours doing the only thing you know how to do: talk. You, sir, are politically doomed, and you have knowingly and consistently brought it all upon yourself.
Let's watch some football!!!
