Maybe They’re Under the Mattress

January 22, 2010 - 11:42 am - by Stephen Green

Here’s some not-at-all-shocking news:

U.S. investors overwhelmingly see President Barack Obama as anti-business and question his ability to manage a financial crisis, according to a Bloomberg survey.

The global quarterly poll of investors and analysts who are Bloomberg subscribers finds that 77 percent of U.S. respondents believe Obama is too anti-business and four-out-of-five are only somewhat confident or not confident of his ability to handle a financial emergency.

Wonder where the jobs went? They’ll come back just as soon as Obama/Pelosi/Reid are done taxing, regulating, and threatening the job-creators out of their minds.

In the meantime, the jobs will stay safely tucked away in Galt’s Gulch.

    Unfortunately, Galt’s Gulch is in India and China. What Ayn Rand didn’t put in Atlas Shrugged is that when the thieves tax, regulate, and threaten the jobs in one country, the opportunities move to other countries. The small scale version of that is to look at where the jobs in CA, NJ, and MA went: they went to other states. Once that happens, it takes a hell of lot to get them back.

    Mort Zuckerman was pitching a fit on CNBC this morning, too. “Bloom off the rose”, shall we say, and questioning his own sanity for supporting the Precedent’s candidacy.

    (And thanks for YOUR vote a year ago November, Mort. We owe ya.)

    Maybe the financial sector should not have been so enthusiastic in their donations to his election campaign.
