ELECTING A LEFTIST AMERICAN PRESIDENT

The consequences of America's continual drift left will peak with the election of a socialist president. The federal courts, already tilted left, will then crash left with the appointment of their favorites. A federal judge in Ohio, for example, has already gerrymandered the political boundaries of a Cleveland suburb so that a minority can sit on the town council. The boundaries had been set up since 'day one' but it was ordered. The city affected could hardly afford to fight big brother in this case.

We have been reading about the loss of jobs in America. We can truly blame both the democrats and republicans for it. They've been asleep at the switch. But its not simply about jobs - its about capital, or the lack thereof. It is fleeing the coop. It has no flag, it goes where it gets. With a leftist President, its gonna get worse.

Former NY Governor Eliot Spitzer targeted those American industries he could sue for umpteen millions. Other states followed suit, literally. Cleveland's Sherwin Williams, for example, is being attacked for manufacturing lead-based paint. A kid left unsupervised on a porch ate the paint chips that were coming off it. While the story is indeed a tragedy, apparently its the fault of Sherwin Williams. These stories and countless others are forcing investors to find other areas in which to invest.....and apparently many of them are not within the boundaries of the United States.

Since Ohio Governor Strickland took office, overtime for has topped over $1,000,000. In one year the state payroll rose 116 million dollars. What's the state's payroll? Only 3.6 billion, an increase of 16%.

This trend will only increase with the election of a leftist President. More "jobs" will flee as federal and state tax and spend policies continue to dominate. Federal and state judges from the left will incerase. We can expect other federal mandates and state expenditures to creep into our lives and change the landscape of a free enterprise system. It's soviet style folks, and it used to be called communism.
