Somewhere along the way, a teacher helped.
Yes, with a contract guaranteeing her a job for life, short of actually killing a student.
I believe every day they taught my NYC Public School classes, all my teachers were paid through the taxes collected from my parents and others. Just as my Catholic School teachers were paid by my parents when I transferred. Except the Public School teachers were paid to fulfill a contract to which my parents were never a negotiating party. They certainly never received the kickbacks the Democrats received for rubber stamping those contracts, contracts paid not with their money but with tax dollars forcibly extorted by a never thankful, corrupt government.
A road was built in front of my business?
Yes, and I’ll give 10 to one odds in any big city it was the result of a corrupt union deal that overcharged the taxpayers and lined the pockets of the union thugs and the Democrat Party.
I owe the road worker and builders a great big attaboy for doing their jobs, paid for with taxpayer monies, that they were overpaid to do. Not a damn thing more from a successful business I may have run.
I owe my teachers a great big attaboy for going into teaching. Not a damn thing more from a successful business I may have run.
Where were all those helpers while my attempts to start a business failed? Why aren’t they responsible for the bankruptcies throughout the economy, because if they had been doing their jobs, wouldn’t we all be successful?
Or, better yet, Comrade Obama, if the secrets of success lie not inside the personal enthusiasm of ownership and rugged individualism that makes an American risk all, but outside in the streets and government buildings put there out of the pure compassion for us by you and your ilk, I ask you a question: Why don’t all businesses succeed?
You denigrate those that say they worked hard because you say there are a lot of hard-working people out there…why aren’t they successful? Is there no road in front of their house? Had they no teachers?
You think you have been a successful agitator? You think you built a successful reputation?
You didn’t build that…Frank Marshall Davis built that!
You didn’t build that…Saul Allinsky built that!
You didn’t build that…Reverend Wright built that!
President Obama, your Government Control mentality is showing, and it is nothing new to us. We have seen your “progressive” policies entrap Eastern Europe, Red China, Cuba, the Middle East, and more.
Your anti-Americanism is coming to the surface. Even those Americans not usually interested in politics (because they are out working hard to make a success of themselves) are noticing.
Go ahead; keep telling the 70% of the economic sector, the small businessmen, that they didn’t earn that for which they have risked all.
See how that works out for you.

The irony of Obama’s statement that claims business owners owe the government for their success, is that successful American business owners have been successful it IN SPITE of the U.S. Government!

typo correction: omit “it”
According to our Founding Fathers, it isn’t government that makes one successful. It isn’t government that provides for a family with a husband, wife and children. It isn’t government that teaches our children right form wrong and the truth about everything. It’s, first and foremost, God. God is the one who creates all these people with a free will, ambition, integrity and rugged individualism. He’s the one that makes it possible for anyone who wants to to work hard, long and honest to become successful and to bear much fruit. We are ALL responsible for how we make our lives. It’s up to us to do the work required to be successful, with the help of God. As they say, “Life is what you make it and what you make it is up to YOU!” Government has systematically destroyed what God made. Government does not teach children right from wrong or the truth about anything. America is being destroyed by the over-sized, tryrannical government. See website: http://www.haasstrep68.com page 4 for the history of treason.
Obama didn’t do any of it he wouldn’t do any manual labor. This is the same argument an IRS auditor used on me once, and by the time I had finished reaming his ass he had called a CID Officer into the room because he was scared.
The American people have put up with too much of this kind of attitude from the lazy butt wipes.
America it’s time too stand up and put a stop to this kind of attitude. The next time you hear someone talking lie that SPEAK up and let them know the truth. Freedom of speech is for everyone not just the ACLU, NAACP, Lawyers, Politicians and Atheists.
Excellent article Ron!
I have had teachers who have made the subject interesting enough to want to study. I have had teachers who were so boring I was driven to study to avoid having to take the course again! Either way, they deserve credit for taking the job and putting up with smart— students like me. But we are past the point where most parents can teach their kids everything they need to know themselves and also support the household – like it or not we need some kind of collective management. We get into trouble when the no-work freebie crowd outnumbers the wanna-work bunch, and all votes are equal (we hope) in the ballot box. There is a limit to how much farther down the road we can kick the can, so we better get busy figuring out which candidates will do the best job of getting us working out of this hole and get to the polls on voting day(s).
No Oblameless did not do any of his TREASON to our country alone, he had help such Muslim Terrorists, his Extreme Radical Zars and his hinchmen, the mainstream media. They ALL should be CHARGED WITH TREASON and PUT IN PRISON.
Obama is right on things such as he had a lot of help along the way to almost destroy our economy. He had his advisors, the Feds, the news media etc. However, anyone who opens a business pretty well does it all on its own, win, lose or draw. He can fail but it is nothis fault but when Bain did it to a few companies, it must have been Mitt’s fault. And I am sick about hearing about what economy it was in when he took office. I guess he must have been responsible just like George W, as he was in the senate and he could have done his part. But he voted “present” so much and did not vote. If you don’t believe me look up his record. He was not effective as a Senator and has not been effective as a President.
Like Maybe Our Imposter Pres Barry Soetoro As A Six Year Old Muslim Was Adopted With Proper Papers, However As A “Foreign Exchange Student” Returns As Pres Barack Obama, What Obama Didn’t Do That Alone?? Thanks Daddy George Soros?? God Bless America And Susan Daniels.
