BUFFALO, NY – President Obama has a new billboard that doesn’t exactly give him some good PR!
President Obama walked into a very clear message when he visited Buffalo, NY on Thursday: “I need a freaking job.” His visit was aimed at promoting the administration’s success in creating new jobs. He also pitched Congress on approving a $30 billion credit for small-business growth.
Latest job figures show 9.9 percent of the nation is still out of work and many blame Obama for focusing his recovery efforts too narrowly. A group of Buffalo residents, fed up with the job market, decided to make sure the president knew their thoughts. The erected billboard was conveniently placed along the route that Obama’s motorcade took into town. They also constructed a website called INAFJ.org to further their mission.
The campaign was organized by Buffalo businessman Jeff Baker, who lost his own small business 15 months ago. Buffalo was already on hard times before the recession, and the current state of the economy has made things much worse.
“We employed 25 people and it was the most heartbreaking situation I’ve been through in my life,” Baker said of losing his business. “Nothing else matters unless the American people are working.”
I like the campaign but I really hope they are not hoping for the government to supply their jobs.

The only way to create jobs is to eliminate all taxes on American businesses and greatly increase taxes on imported goods. This will free up funds which can be used to expand American business and hire new workers. Higher import taxes will make American made goods more competitive in price with imports. It will also be a strong incentive for businesses that have gone overseas to return to America, thus creating millions of new job opportunities here for Americans.
Taxes on business are really taxes on those who purchase the goods and services the businesses provide. Companies simply add on their taxes as part of the price for the goods and services they sell. So, taxing business is really stupidly taxing ourselves in the final analysis. When we eliminate that loony tax on ourselves, there will be an abundance of employment opportunities available and lower prices on everything (except imports) as a result.
Congress alone can make those extremely beneficial changes to our tax system; however, Obama can and should strongly encourage them to do so. Republicans would applaud such legislation while Democrats would not easily be able to see its logic because it is contrary to their traditional economic worldview. Perhaps Obama can open their minds to economic sanity if he is capable of seeing it himself. I certainly hope so for the good of the entire nation.
I really hope your message grows just as the Teaparty did. We as a people banded together can really make a difference and I just wish more people would realize that. Yes we are slow to wake up but that goodness we are, slowlt but surely. Great statement!!!!!
