The post Obama America
Three weeks before the election it appears Romney has gained the momentum and Obama is starting to panic. It is time for some "hail Mary" disclosures and the like from the Obama campaign. Should Obama lose, and lose decisively as is possible based where we are now, it is timel to speculate on what could happen after the election. Who would be the winners and losers in a Romney administration. The biggest losers should be the MSM for its complicity in bringing us Obama in the first place and doing its best to keep us misinformed after he was elected. One has to feel for those who have depended exclusively on the MSM for their news over the years because they have been ill-served. Likely the MSM will shrink rapidly in influence after Obama's defeat for, among other reasons, the country will get back on track under a pro business administration, and jobs will begin to materialize. Clearly, and in the knick of time, the unions, especially the government employees unions, will take a big hit. Sweetheart retirement deals will be revisited and scaled down and collective bargaining rights will be challenged and hopefully rolled back. Right to work laws should be passed in many states in order for them to compete with states not burdened with closed shop laws. Teachers unions in particular should be reigned in or simply abolished in order to put in place education reforms necessary to keep American workers competitive in the global marketplace. Government jobs at all levels should be eliminated, probably as many as 1/3d to 1/2 of the current number and of course many of the programs should go the way of the dodo bird as well. In short, government must be scaled back in order to free up the private sector which is the only place productive, wealth generating jobs are created. The statist and collectivist members of Congress should take a big hit too, as their influence will wane in an economy that is expanding and creating jobs.
