Who wants? Who needs?

Working hard and earning money are no longer acceptable. Americans are on their way to asking of their government: give me-get me-buy me.

And once again, we have a utterly feckless president whose penchant for listening with tin ears is incredible. This time he tells "60 Minutes" that Wall Street execs need to get out of NYC so they can see what it's like in the rest of the country and really see how much money they really make (compared to to apparent peons in East Bumfuck).

Obama is losing it. His leadership "skill" is a myth. He doesn't know what he's doing. People thought Sarah Palin was pandering to the lowest common denomintor in trying to punch up class divide on the campaign trail? Well, if you thought that back then, what do you make of Obama now? Palin's got nothing on Obama when it comes to creating that divide.

In any case, if I were a foreign government (and likely an investor in US debt) I'd be nervous right now. I'd start selling US assets, slowly, and if possible, secretly, because Obama's creating a welfare state at the very least and fomenting civil strife at the very worse; eitheer of which is going to cost a lot of money that we don't have.
