Oh, are you referring to those major economic policy changes that Obama inflicted on the country which caused the longest, slowest recovery from a recession in history?  What is YOUR assessment of why Obama's promise to give us universal healthcare insurance caused the loss of millions of jobs and thousands of companies going out of business in his first year in office, the worst job losses occurring immediately over the first few months after he was elected in '08?  Have you ever spoken to any business owners who lost everything as a result of Obama's stupidity to understand precisely why that took place as I have?  My business survived that period only because I took measures immediately after Election day in 2008 because I knew what this idiot had planned after hearing his campaign promises.  He belittled Joe the Plumber by coming right out and telling him that he planned to "spread his wealth around", and continued his animus towards business owners by his oft-repeated claims that I (as a business owner) "didn't build that!"  That MY success was SOLELY due to my ability to use the roads and bridges I drove on that the government provided for me, purposely avoiding the fact that the huge business taxes paid by myself and other business owners funded a far greater percentage of those roads and bridges than the average person did!  I knew damn well what he had in mind for me, so right after Election day I immediately changed the direction of my company.  I cancelled an order for new equipment I had just placed a few weeks before, I reduced my inventory, and cut out overtime for my employees, then laid off two workers just weeks before Christmas.  I shelved a new product line that would have been released in the Spring of 2009, and stopped all R&D expenditures.  And when Obama forced through the new mandates for Obamacare the next year, I cancelled the plan I gave my workers (which was no longer qualified as a business deduction because the idiot mandated that I include abortion coverage in all plans, regardless of the fact that I had only male workers) and told my employees why and suggested they go and buy their own plan on Obamacare.  That saved me thousands of dollars every month, and based on the huge number of layoffs around the country, most small businesses like mine did the same thing.

So please, LowIQ.  Spare me your uninformed opinion of the damage caused by Obama's socialist regulations, because all you know about what actually took place in those years is what the left-wing media (who LOVED to suck Obama's cock) told you!
Or did you ALSO get the same warm, tingly feeling up your leg whenever he spoke as one media liberal claimed, right after being SO impressed with the crease in his pants as another one fawned over him!
