Subject: RE: BS: Popular Views: the Obama Administration
On November 3, 2008, Amos wrote a post wondering what DougR, Sawz, and BB would suggest Obama do to improve the lot of US citizens, or words to that effect.

Today is November 11, 2009, and I list my suggestions:

1. Drop current the trillion dollar plan to designed to convert our current excellent health care system into one that mirrors single payer plans in other countries. It is just too expensive and he and his Democrat cohorts risk bankrupting the country.

2. Focus on ways to improve the economy, and that includes cutting costs, not increasing them.

3. Focus on ways and means to create jobs in the private sector, not in government.

4. Do not allow the Bush tax cuts to expire.

5. Cut corporate taxes and capital gains taxes.

Were he to do those things, he might find his approval rating increasing not tanking.
