How much will Obama's economic relief plan for America require of YOU?


By now, you have heard about Joe the Plumber. (If you have not, you're living in the dark.) Joe Wurzelbacher of Toledo, Ohio dared ask Obama the critical questions with regards to his financial plans for the economic recovery of the United States.

Joe is a tradesman who has worked 12-hour shifts for years and now plans to buy his own small plumbing business. The trouble for this plumber is that becoming a small business owner would inevitably increase his earnings to over $250,000 - making him a target of Obama’s plan to tax the wealthy.


Wait. So what exactly IS Obama's wonderbread idea for the economy?

Anyone earning over $250,000 is to be taxed. He also wants to lower minimal wage by almost TWO dollars per hour. Small businesses and middle class citizens will be punished for America's economic crisis. Middle class citizens are the backbone of the economy. When the backbone of the country is in trouble, the end of prosperity for all citizens is at hand. This end will be accomplished through the medium of socialism. Obama would never align himself with the word, but deeds speak louder than words ever do.

Small businesses will be overtaxed, causing them to cut their losses and eventually let go of key employees. Half of small businesses, those with 20 or less employees, across the United States will suffer. If these businesses cannot support a smaller workforce, how can they afford medical benefits for employees? Beyond the obvious problem of a lack of good workforce, look at America as a whole. Who is going to work for a company that cannot supply medical benefits? Small businesses WILL fail. The middle class individual WILL suffer severe ramifications. Prosperity WILL decline. The wealthy WILL gain more wealth. Monopolies WILL surface. Every business WILL leave the United States to set up profitable businesses in China and in India. The United States WILL be forever dependent on other countries.

And you know what else WILL happen? Big cuts in military budget. Obama's peaceful endeavors will invite war. It is inevitable. You cannot assume that other countries will not jump at a chance to dominate world economy and political strength over America. We WILL be vulnerable. We WILL be unable to withstand.


As you can see, Joe's story is but the tip of the iceberg.

In fact, the engagement between the plumber and Obama allowed the people of America to see the truth behind the charismatic candidate's smile. Obama wants to turn us into a socialist state. A welfare-crutch? "Spread the wealth around"?!? This is another way of saying "share the wealth." Have you ever witnessed China's extreme wealth and extreme poverty? Sharing the wealth actually lends more wealth to the wealthy. Do you know what it's like to live in communism? Don't speak of what you don't know.

Think a socialist state is the way to go? Pay attention to the details. Stop listening to the biased press and do background checks, read history, research things for yourself! Stop being lazy. Understand that the freedoms you take for granted every day of your life are at stake.


Here's another thing about Joe: they sicked the ACLU on him. Vice presidential nominee Biden calls him a liar. Did you know, he can't even get a job right now? So much for the American dream. As blogger Michelle Malkin so candidly stated, Welcome to Joe the Plumber Derangement Syndrome. If you can’t beat him, smear him. It’s the Obama way.


If you don't hear anything else in this note, understand this: There is no "American dream" in Obama's plans. There is only the "Obama dream." What did he say ... "Words? Just words? 'I have a dream...' Just words?" These decisions will impact the United States forever!

**When you allow yourself to absorb and be persuaded by the honeyed speech from a Snake's Mouth, you WILL get bitten in the end!
