inherited the regime of artificial low interest rate from President Clinton, Rupert Rubin (thenTreasury Secretary) and Alan Greenspan (Fed Chairman for 18 years by now) that sow the seedsof the massive derivative contagion.President Obama forgot that he was appointed President for 4 years – up to January 2013 latest.Having seen his inadequacy to address the immediate financial problems, he set upon himself aconvenient mode to divert the attention of the American people by any means. He adopted thefollowing diversionary tactics successfully:1.
He started showing moon to the American people. Having seen the oil prices zooming to $145 per gallon, he found convenient tool to exhort the American car manufacturers to “gogreen” and invest into green technology that would reduce oil consumption, pollution andcarbon emission.a.
Such cars to be commissioned by 2014 to 2016 when he will no longer be around.b.
What is the point of talking such non-sense when the immediate need was to set thefinancial house in order, stop the mortgage hemorrhaging, foreclosures and createthe jobs and help the local Auto manufacturers to dispose off the existing carinventory in the ware house and on assembly lines?2.
He then became champion of another green technology – Solar Energy – which will takeyears and billions of dollars before that technology became available at reasonable cost onmass scale. Again, he was showing moon to the American people by showing distant calendar of 2016 to 2020.3.
He became then the champion of “climate change” by spearheading campaign for actionsfor control of carbon emission and reserving and doling out hundreds of billions of dollarsof unproven and non-focused technology or even concept.a.
He was trying to interfere in the automatic self balancing system of the nature.b.
He went all the way to Copenhagen in “freezing cold” to talk about “global warming”.Back home in all 4 North Eastern states from Washington DC and New York wereengulfed in 5 to 8 feet deep snow or ice in freezing cold when he was devotingalmost half the time of his presidency on global warming.c.
Hey, Mr. President, there is snow and ice all around – where is the evidence of globalwarming?d.
In Afghanistan and Iraq his US army was exploding disastrous bombs that wereemitting more Carbon dioxide than one small plant in China. Did he end the warwith immediate effect e.
Osama and Al Qaida were blasting human and real bombs everywhere killingthousand of innocents and causing tons of carbon smokes from the bombing sites.Could he get the cooperation of Bin Laden for carbon emission control?f.
In short, he was rushing into “abstract” and “non verifiable” concepts just to divert the attention of the American people.4.
He planned and created hundreds of billions of package called “TARP Trillions” to resurrect the financial system.a.
He was trying to kill the wealthy and efficient by chasing them all the way down toUBS, Switzerland by calling for names of 52,000 wealthy Americans who werereported to be tax dodgers.b.
He was using hundreds of billions of new money thrown after bad money by lendingsupport to bankrupt Citigroup, AIG, Fannie/Freddie Mae, Bank of America, WellsFargo, Goldman Sachs, General Electric and host of other bad borrowers.c.
In short he was trying to extract billions from efficient wealthy and passing onnearly 100 times more to inefficient banks, brokers and insurers.5.
When he could not create jobs, he invented new slogans – by equaling Saving of Jobs asCreation of New jobs.
