Political Public Opinion: Obama’s Job Creation Finally Here…. For The Chinese
“Fantasy is totally wide open; all you really have to do is follow the rules you’ve set.”
Octavia Butler
Obama是人!
President Barack Obama is spending $2.1 million to help Suntech Power Holdings Co. build a solar- panel plant in Arizona. It will hire 70 Americans to assemble components made by Suntech’s 11,000 Chinese workers.
That gap shows the challenge Obama faces as he works to create “green” jobs. Asia makes more than half the world’s wind and solar energy equipment, and is gaining ground as U.S. factories lose out to cheaper labor and higher demand for clean energy. China for the first time topped the U.S. in wind-turbine manufacturing and installations last year, the Brussels-based Global Wind Energy Council said yesterday in a report.
Obama is giving billions of dollars in tax breaks to the wind and solar industries to create jobs in the U.S. even as production expands faster overseas. First Solar Inc., the world’s largest maker of thin-film solar-power modules, won $16.3 million to add 200 manufacturing jobs at its Ohio plant, yet 71 percent of its planned factory growth will go to Malaysia. The company employs 4,500 globally. http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601109&sid=adIdrmtTtyw8&pos=12
I think that the radical left, those who looked towards Obama as the answer to all their one world socialist fantasies, are secretly celebrating. Obama is a dream come true for the “Internationale” movement as fantasized by Karl Marx. I would think that maybe Obama’s intended agenda might in a Voltaire like fantasy, go like this: First, borrow as much money as possible from China to create a financial dependency on tn the Chinese government. Two, fund the development of green eneregy jobs in China, using the money Obama borrowed from them. Three once their green energy industry is booming ship American workers to China who if they really want jobs, will gladly go to China – where all the jobs are. Voila!
To wit: I am a fan of Voltaire, a man of vision who painted a harsh reality as fantasy. Obama like Candide views the world with an optimism based on his own misperception of the world. The only difference between Candide and Obama is I still haven’t found out who is Obama’s “Pangloss,” (Pangloss was Candide’s mentor.) Sound too deep or ridiculous? Read the book and form your own conclusion. Hey….just my opinion.

Private sector unemployment up, private sector production up, government employment up, government production….oh wait the government produces nothing other than 1penny at the cost of 2 pennies and 1nickle at the price of one thin dime. Don’t be surprised if soon the Red Chinese are contracted to mint our coinage.
