Why repubicans may actually create jobs....banks trying to make Obama Adm. look bad
Edited on Fri Oct-08-10 04:12 PM by francolettieri
As everyone knows, banks are hoarding money right now, reluctant to invest in companies. That may be a method of making the Obama administration look bad, and make conservatives look good. Since banks know they will get more favors with conservatives in power, I'm thinking banks may start to invest after the mid term elections when more conservatives take power, or in a scary scenerio, they may continue to hoard money until 2012 elections, which would keep unemployment high and insure Obama would no be re-elected, then open the flood gates and invest with a newly elected republican president : (

Banks have the power/methods to screw the democratic party/ Obama administration and make them look incompetent in terms of the economy/jobs.

1. I don't agree but if you are correct
it would be very easy to change that - or so I'm told. Simply start charging the banks rent for stored money and add a fee for every share of stock traded. Now I'm not smart enough to know if that will work but the Wachovia bigshot that handles our business financing is convinced that will help.

2. Just said something like that to
someone this afternoon. The corps are sitting on trillions and they might be waiting to hire until after the election hoping the GOP wins, people would believe that the GOP policies created the jobs.

3. The banks hit the jackpot with the $10 trillion bailouts worldwide.
It's better for them just to sit on the cash and pay themselves fat bonuses.
