Time Is Up

It is time to admit that Mr. Obama's economic theories just...don't....work.

What slays me is that before the first stimulus bill was passed in 2009, the CBO stated that the economy would recover on its own by the end of the year.  The continuing string of "unexpected" increases in unemployment as well as the Democrats serial inability to accurately predict the outcome of their initiatives underscores the fact that we are better off leaving the economy alone instead of trying to "tweak" it further.

The continual addition of new regulations, the health care bill, and threats of higher taxes only serve to discourage employers from hiring folks that want to work.  If Congress and the President continue to make it more expensive for employers to hire workers, then employers will continue to not hire workers.

It is just that simple.
