We have proof the economy is returning to normal after the
hard hitting dive we took in jobs and housing at the end of the Bush
presidency.
Now we Americans have to make a decision whether we stay the
course that President Obama wants to keep us on or if we go with the five point
plan that Mitt Romney wants to implement.
I believe the five point plan Mr. Romney has is only on his
fingers. His plan right now may only be an idea and that’s why he can’t seem to
tell us what the plan entails. We know he wants to cut taxes again which seems
to always be a Republican plan. We also know that cutting taxes will just make
the national debt bigger and many economists say that Mitt Romney’s math doesn’t
add up.
Many of us believe that Mitt Romney will take away tax
breaks that help middle class Americans. An example is the homeowner’s deduction.
Romney has said he won’t tax the rich any more than they are
now. So guess what that means? Somehow down the road it’s going to cost the
rest of us Americans more. It may be fewer deductions or maybe increased fees
but the little guys will end up the losers if Mitt Romney becomes president.
Now on the other side of the coin is a plan from President
Obama that is working to improve the American economy while other countries and
the Republicans are still slowing us down.
President Obama has lowered the cost to students on loans
for college. President Obama knows that good high-paying jobs require well-educated
employees. Barack Obama has been pushing
job programs that Republicans keep blocking. Just this week we saw a protest in
Freeport, Illinois at the Sensata plant that is being closed down by Bain
Capital. The employees at this plant will be out of work thanks to Mitt Romney
and Bain Capital which is shipping all their jobs to China. Mitt Romney owns eight million dollars’ worth
of Bain funds so he stands to profit on the loss of these American jobs. We
also know that President Obama kept jobs in this same town when China was trying
to bring in cheap tires.
If Mitt Romney is so good for America why then does he still
keep making his money betting against the American worker? It would have been
nice to see him, before he ran for president, cash in all his Bain funds. Mitt
is for Mitt; being president to him is just another trophy.
