I doubt if our Sears store makes it until July as I hardly see any cars in their huge parking lot any more. And it just keeps getting worse. And the people that voted for that fool think he is doing a great job, but can't answer any question about anything that has improved since he took office.
And Cobra Bill, before you jump in and take offence, I don't like him, didn't vote for him, and distrust him completely. But I do not want to see him fail as I love this country and it is on the verge of making what happened to the old soviet Union look like a minor disaster.

It seems unAmerican to want him to fail. BUT, EVERYTHING he is doing is just MORE OF THE SAME that caused our problems. And those problems predate Bush1 and Bush 2. They predate me and I'm 67. And they can be laid at the feet of both Red and Blue elected idiots.
The term, "For All" is a death knell for ALL business when attached to a specific.
Attached to intangibles, its OK. Freedom for all, is fine. Opportunity for all, also fine. Equality for all, OK too.

HEALTH CARE for all, a ticking time bomb.
Education for all, tick, tick.
Home ownership for all, tick, tick
Jobs for all, tick, tick.
Social security for all, TICK, TICK

Government involved in business is a disaster that WILL HAPPEN, it may be years, but it is 100% CERTAIN.

The Governments business is running the Government, AFTER, listening to us. They don't do the listening and their "business" is 11 trillion in the RED.
Libs can gripe all the want about Bush adding 5 trillion to the RED. But Bush was only President. Congress spends the money. And Blues had power part of his time and Reds had power part of his time. And the Gov. "business" was 5 Trillion in the RED after BJ Clinton. And Trillions before he wagged his Weiner around the Oval Office.
The blame game is a horse and a horse for about a century. Plenty of blame to go around.

They can only make it worse or get out of the way, let the blood flow, and INDIVIDUAL citizens WILL fix the problem, or we will be finished. Government intervention INSURES we will be finished.
