In the years that President Barack Obama has been in office, which is very few, he and the laughable excuses of money handlers have not done anything to cut the national deficit at all, and instead have made cuts into programs, such as our advantage in space exploration, to pay for things that may work on paper but don't in the real world.
In his mind, Obama's plans work. If they worked, why are we not working? To take and paraphrase a line from the film "Top Gun," he is writing checks this country can't cash.
Having the government try to regulate everything from business to health care is not true capitalism. That is more akin to a form of government that eventually falls in upon itself. I believe it is called communism.

I'll believe Obama is a communist when all of our farmers are forced at gunpoint to work on collective farms. This letter writer has no clue what communism is and is not.
Mr. Green, you've left the door wide open with the hyperbole in that last sentence, so I am going to walk right through it and say this: You don't know anything about communism. Nothing. Not a thing. There is no Bolshevik Revolution here. More..

Why did we have such a large deficit in the first place? Eric, do you have amnesia? Who was President for More..
