America Together: Returning to Work Town Hall with President Trump ~ Parts 1 and 2 ~ Fox News Videos

Well, you wonder, why was it so long before I could put this post together with the "Returning to Work Town Hall with President Trump," which was aired a week ago? It truly was a very busy news week. I concentrated on Dan Bongino's episodes regarding Gen. Flynn, which really did consume most of my time. I kept this one on the backburner until I finally had the time to watch both parts.

It is probably safe to say now, people want to get back to work! Enough is enough!  This may actually be a better time for me to publish this Town Hall now, rather than a week ago. We've now had a chance to see the challenges that the lack of employment is putting on this country, thanks to the acts of courage of various entrepreneurs that just wanted to be able to put food on the table, and not lose everything during the Wuhan Virus Shutdown of 2020. Two people were arrested for doing that: Kelley Luther and Jax Myers. We must remember to thank them when the various States start opening for business. I think that their stories showed the desperation of the American people, wanting to get back to the "old normal." The "new normal" really isn't working out so well.

I think that President Trump is right. But, perhaps you will see both videos below, and come to a different conclusion. At least now, you can get first hand information right from the President. As Fox News says, "Here's the news, fair and balanced, and then you decide."

Gutfeld on America's unity in the face of a pandemic ~ The Five ~ Video

Here is the description of this video on the Fox News YouTube channel:

When your grandkids ask you what you did in the 'Great Quarantine of 2020,' you can say: 'Not much, but we did it all together.'

What Greg Gutfeld said was so true.  It is not an April Fools prank.  The one thing we know is that we ARE all in this together.  We just have to stay at home, but it will just be temporary, they say.  Anyway, Greg's idea was good; let's hit a "pause button."  With the things that are happening now, to protect those that are vulnerable to the Coronavirus, we are all taking a huge financial hit.

Being The Five, you could almost count on an argument, but it really didn't go that way.  Even Juan Williams, in adding his 2 cents, actually complemented President Trump's leadership!  (That clip is at 7:00 minutes into the video.)  They all had great things to say about the need for unity, and that we are actually seeing it happen.  Yes, I've seen the 1st Responders saluting the doctors and nurses as they exited or entered the hospital in the shift changes.

And can I add my two cents, too?  I pray for, and salute all of the health care workers and everyone working at the hospitals or medical offices.  I pray for, and salute all of the first responders: Law enforcement officers, firefighters, and EMTs. And I pray for, and salute all of the people that are essential employees and go to work, among the public, in the stores that remain open.

And, I give all the glory to the Lord for people like Mike Lindell that are not only doing things for our country, but are not afraid to say they Love our Lord.  Well, maybe this blog will be a career ender for me, but I can see how much God is working in all of our lives right now.  Actually, He is the main reason that I am doing these blogs.  For the love of this great nation, and We the People.  We will get through this!

They Sold You Out! ~ Ep. 1183 ~ The Dan Bongino Show®

So, was the Obama Administration for sale? To somebody like George Soros? And is there any truth to former President Obama deserving credit for the current Trump economy?

Of course, those are questions you are asking, and you deserve a good answer to them. This was a good reason for me to not give up when my previous computer died just 24 hours ago. Well, I'm still here, and I'm still wanting you to pay attention to what Dan Bongino has to say. Just watch the video.

Obama: Those ideas failed already ~ By Herman Cain

In this column, we're reminded why Obama's economic strategies are not working. Uncertainty is one of the major reasons why the economy isn't "stimulated."

As the column continues on, Herman Cain spells out his NEW plan to get the economy going again. Herman's "9-9-9" plan is vastly different than his original ideas, where the Fair Tax had been featured. Will Cain's new 9-9-9 plan help or hurt him in his quest for the Presidency? You can find out what the new 9-9-9 plan is by reading this column, and then you can decide for yourself.

I've provided the video below to assist you with informing yourself.

Obama: Those ideas failed already

HERMAN CAIN

By Herman Cain

The U.S. economy is on life support. The stock market is on a roller coaster. The unemployment situation has gotten worse. The Middle East is more volatile than ever. Congress has one of the lowest approval ratings in history, while President Obama's approval rating has hit a new low.

And now, after his big "jobs speech" before a joint session of Congress last week, the president wants to spend another nearly $450 billion to turn things around, since the first stimulus of nearly $1 trillion did not work. The speech contained the same kind of ideas he proposed earlier, packaged in some different rhetoric except for two new additions.

First, he proposed to cut the payroll tax in half for both employees and employers, but he did not say for how long. Granted, it's half of what I have been proposing for months. But without major companion cuts in the top corporate and personal income tax rates, and the suspension of taxes on repatriated foreign profits, it's just another crumb from the want-to-be king's table.

Businesses are not going to rush out and start hiring people, just as they did not when the president passed the 2 percent payroll tax crumb in the first stimulus package. And businesses still do not know what the tax structure will be in 2013. That's not fuel for the economic engine, which is the business sector. It's just a few dollars in the pockets of workers and more uncertainty.

Private sector must lead recovery ~ By Herman Cain

The private sector is the engine of this economy, but putting more spending and regulations in the caboose of the train is not going to fuel the engine. So expecting this economy to grow faster by watching and hoping is an empty expectation.

Much of the public has been deceived into thinking that cutting tax rates reduces revenue into the Treasury, and that it only helps the rich. The experience of the 1960s and 1980s, when Kennedy and Reagan were in the White House, respectively, debunks that notion.

Watching this economy struggle over the next 18 months is going to be especially painful for the unemployed, and those businesses that are barely holding on for survival. And, yes, the private sector will have to take the lead when we properly boost the engine.

Until then, we might as well watch grass grow, because that's about all the green this economy is going to see.

Well, here's the thing... Herman Cain makes the case about what needs to be done to get the economy going again. There is no doubt in my mind that it will take the private sector to stimulate the economy, and that Herman's solutions would be the right thing to do. But, I do have some questions... Oh, wait, not about what Herman wants to do, but regarding what President Obama seems to be trying to do.

Here's what is bugging me: How could the person that was touted to be so brilliant be such an absolute idiot when it comes to getting the economy going again? All that Herman Cain explains in this column are commonly accepted principles when it comes to encouraging growth in the economy. Businesses need certainty in the tax code. What will happen following the extension of the Bush tax cuts? The clear intent that Herman Cain shows to cut or eliminate the taxes for businesses investing capital in starting or expanding a business would be the jolt that this economy needs at this time.

In the mean time, Obama's rhetoric and lack of a real solution is not very encouraging for businesses, and that stymies any economic growth. His agenda sends a chill down the back of even the most courageous of entrepreneurs. What I can't quite comprehend is how a President would make so many wrong decisions when it comes to getting our economy going again. In fact, from what I've seen so far, Obama's policies are what is creating the stagnation!

But wait! Isn't Obama supposed to be so magnificently intelligent? Shouldn't he be aware of the economic principles that would move our economy forward, and not backward?

What Herman Cain wrote in this column is mostly what I learned in college in Economics 101 and my basic Business Administration classes that I took. So, there is only one thing that I can assume from Obama's actions so far: He is either really stupid, or he doesn't want our economy to improve. I don't believe he is THAT stupid.... So, maybe, he just doesn't want We the People to be able to start and/or expand a business and succeed. That would make Communism look bad! I'm just sayin'...

Private sector must lead recovery

A senior Obama administration official said recently that the private sector will have to lead this economic recovery. He's right! But the private sector cannot do it unless government gets out of the way. The Obama administration's policies have increased the size of the federal government, increased regulatory barriers and dramatically increased the national debt.

Most Americans sitting around the kitchen table knew that we could not spend and regulate our way to prosperity. But the president and the Democrat-controlled Congress at the time did it anyway. And now, after nearly $1 trillion in government spending, the economy is still stalled. Namely, 1.8 percent growth in Gross Domestic Product in the first quarter of 2011is anemic, and a 9.1 percent unemployment rate continues to be disappointing to the nearly 15 million people who are still unemployed.

Our national GDP could easily be growing at 5 percent or more, with the top tax rates for businesses and individuals set at 25 percent and made permanent until we replace the entire tax code mess. And taking the capital gains tax rate to zero is just the fuel that the small business part of our economic engine needs.

It sure would be nice to hear an unemployment rate report of under 5 percent again, which would mean at least 7.5 million people could be back to work. It would be more than just music to their ears. They might even have some real hope again.

"Hope and change" became spend and regulate in the Obama administration. And now, the president and the Democrats want us to "watch and hope." Simply extending the tax rates for two years with a 2 percent one-year payroll tax holiday for employees is not going to tickle this economy back to prosperity.

With all due respect, Mr. President, there is no hope that this economy will turn itself around. It will remain stalled because there are no meaningful tax cuts, there is no regulatory relief and there is still the uncertainty about what tax rates will be in 2013.
