Daily PUMA Column - Commentary by Alessandro Machi

Wednesday, May 30, 2012

You may be supporting Obama's economic policies without even realizing it.

While I only endorse a Hillary Clinton presidency, immediately if not sooner, some of you who are unhappy with the fraud and deception that occurred in the 2008 democrat primary are blindly supporting Barack Obama without even realizing it.

Some of you with blogs, even some of you with blogs who get a lot more viewership than Daily PUMA does, are DEAD WRONG when it comes to policies regarding consumer debt.

Many people with consumer debt were not irresponsible acquiring that debt. Much of the consumer debt that people have now was based on 2006 home values. Debt accrual based on 2006 home values was tolerable back then when home equity values were anywhere from 40% to 75% higher than they are now. But based on diminished home values in 2012 of 40% to 75% of the value a homeowner had back in 2006, those same consumer debts are absolutely insufferable.

The crazy part is the neo con republicans say, "get a job", or, "get a second job" in regards to that pre-existing consumer debt that was based on debt when consumers had much more equity, while progressive democrats clamor for debt forgiveness. BOTH POSITIONS are stupid.

The ideal solution is what I call Debt Neutrality. No new interest rate charges, penalties or fees are charged on existing consumer debt and in exchange for that incentive the consumer agrees to either lower their overall consumer debt each and every month, or, if unemployed, the debtor agrees to pay down their debt whenever they have a certain amount of monthly income.

If you disagree with the concept of debt neutrality, then you are an Obamaist because all Obama wants to do is GIVE OUT LOANS and PUT MORE PEOPLE IN MORE DEBT!

Anytime Obama speaks about the economy, he talks about government loan programs, and that is it!  If wall street is not going to be properly punished for the HUGE home securitization fraud they committed that resulted in the loss of 7 to 10 TRILLION DOLLARS in home equity value since 2006, and if all Obama can offer is more government loans, then the actual alternative that would work is incentivizing debt reduction so people can dig themselves out of their own financial hole.

But for consumers to dig themselves out of their own financial hole, they can't have bankers throwing more dirt on them in the form of additional interest rate charges, penalties and fees at the same time the consumer is shoveling in earnest to get out of the financial hole they already have.

If you do not come forward in support of debt neutrality, you are inadvertently supporting either Barack Obama's create more consumer and small business debt tactics, or Mitt Romney's cut social services far far back while increasing military spending routine.

Ask yourself this, what would Hillary Clinton do? 


Would Hillary Clinton really have offered debt forgiveness?  Really?????  I don't think Hillary Clinton believes in irresponsible entitlements, whereas Barack Obama relies on them to further his political career.


Would Hillary Clinton cut social programs and raise military expenditures? I don't think so either.

The conclusion I reach is Hillary Clinton would want to give americans the best chance possible to dig themselves out of their own financial hole without having fat cat bankers profiting each and every step of the way.

Obama advocates for Gay Marriages just a day before two huge California fundraisers, how about a real discussion about gay marriage instead?

How the issue of gay marriages should be played out, but won't be because of the built in political divisiveness permeating american politics....

Step 1:  Gay Activists file a lawsuit claiming Gay marriage discrimination because some heterosexuals marriages are between heterosexuals who CANNOT conceive a child, and therefore that is no different than a gay couple that also cannot produce an offspring without additional assistance.

Step 2:  Court agrees that it is DISCRIMINATORY to allow heterosexuals who cannot conceive a child to have marriage benefits while denying gay couples who wish to wed those same marriage benefits.

Step 3: Republicans change the law so that ONLY heterosexual couples who can conceive can have marriage benefits.

Step 4:  Heterosexual couples who cannot conceive are so incensed they no longer are considered as married as heterosexual couples who can conceive they rip up their marriage certificates and form a coalition with gay couples and agree to have a "civil union" ceremony instead.

Step 5:  Liberal heterosexual couples who CAN conceive join the protest, rip up their marriage licenses, and agree to also have a "civil union" ceremony.

Step 6:  Traditional marriages drop to 50% of all marriages. The Civil  Union  Ceremony coalition comprises the other 50% and now DEMAND legislation that acknowledges their civil unions be treated like a marriage.

Step 7:  Republicans and Democrats now must bicker over issues such as entitlements and benefits "conventional" marriages presently receive versus what is acceptable for civil union ceremonies to  also receive.

The wildcard in all of this are heterosexual couples who cannot conceive receiving the exact same benefits that a gay couple would receive, and no more, I believe that is the best strategy for moving forward.

Instead of the above scenario then playing out to a spell binding finish, we get "yeah", gay marriages should be legal" from the progressives, and "ugh, gay marriage is an abomination" from the neo con republicans. 

Can we ELEVATE the gay marriage discussion por favor?

The real talking points are... 

A. Gay couples should receive the exact same marriage benefits as a heterosexual couple who cannot conceive a child, to argue against this point would mean one is an intolerant religious zealout, and that percentage of the population is probably no more than 25%.


B. Heterosexual couples who are married and can conceive really do have it the toughest among all potential pairings since their lives can change at any moment in time by pregnancy, whether they like or not, and this point should also not be forgotten.

C. Gay couples could stay the course and over time make civil unions more popular than conventional heterosexual marriages.

Barack Obama has simply played on the emotions of progressives and liberals by making this a democrats vs republicans issue. If Hillary Clinton had been elected, I think there would have been constructive dialogue based on some of the concepts outlined in this article.

And Hillary Clinton was labeled the divisive one in 2008, by whom, the dividers among us.

Obama trots out the race card in his first official campaign speech of 2012, nobody from the media seems to notice.


Obama brought up the race card again on the first day of his official 2012 campaign speech held in Ohio, but nobody seemed to notice. 
Obama said something like..."show the world again how great america is the way you did four years ago."
That comment is undertow for..."show the world you are not racists by voting for an african american president again".  

There is NO OTHER INTERPRETATION for that phrase, I challenge anyone to come up with a different interpretation and put it in the comments section.

Luckily our "sage" media was all over the comment and made Obama explain it. (not).

Rothman: Obama, not Hillary Clinton, was the right choice | Politicker NJ - Daily PUMA DISAGREES.

If Rothman quacks like a loser, and thinks like loser, and is delusional,  than he's a loser. Excellent call by Bill Clinton to kick this democrat loser to the curb and support his rival.

How come some of Obama's "advisors" are the biggest putz's on the Planet?



This is just outrageous, but typical for Obama.  Obama has a Jobs and Competitiveness advisor whose own company (TransUnion) sells credit info to companies who then use that info to fire people already hired because their debt to credit ratio is too high! 


Do you see the Obama pattern here?  Either you have money and donate to the pompous king leading us, or you walk on your knees to him and gratefully accept his handout.


Read below and gasp......

Fired for having student loans? Latoya Horton says she was fired from her job as an accountant, not because she did anything wrong, but because her employer checked her credit report and decided her debt-to-credit ratio was too high. Latoya was outraged: "How are you supposed to pay off your student loans if you can't get -- or keep -- a job because of your loans?"



It happens more than you think: Latoya found out that 60% of employers now check employees' credit reports. They often buy them from TransUnion, one of the largest credit reporting companies. TransUnion's chair, Penny Pritzker, even sits on President Obama's jobs panel. She's responsible for spurring job creation, but her company is profiting from a practice that makes it harder for people with debt to find work.


You can help: Latoya started a petition on Change.org demanding that TransUnion stop selling credit reports to employers immediately. If thousands of people sign Latoya's petition, it will shine a national spotlight on what Latoya thinks is an ethically dubious practice, and TransUnion's executives will be forced to respond.Click here to sign Latoya's petition.


Thanks,  - Tim
------
Here's a lot more information about Latoya's campaign in her own words:Years ago I went to college to study accounting, and like millions of other Americans I took out loans to pay for it. A few years later I got a temporary job in the accounting department at Bain & Co., and after 6 months of reliable work I was thrilled to be offered a full-time position.

However, just a few weeks after starting in my new position the company fired me because my debt-to-credit ratio was too high. I later learned that 60% of employers now check credit reports, which typically include student debts. 
How are you supposed to pay off your student debts if you can't get (or keep) a job BECAUSE of your debts? And what do my student debts have to do with my ability to do a job well anyway?
25 states have debated bills in the last year to restrict this practice, and in a number of these states one company has fought hardest against these efforts: credit reporting company TransUnion.
What's ironic is that Penny Pritzker, TransUnion's Chair and part owner, sits on President Obama's Jobs and Competitiveness Council, which advises the President on putting Americans back to work. How can someone advise on national job creation when her company sells products that may keep qualified people out of work?
Please join me and 25 national civil rights organizations in calling on TransUnion to stop its sale of credit reports to employers. As the only one of the “Big 3” credit reporting companies that's privately held, TransUnion has the ability to stop this practice overnight. 


It was recently announced that in the coming weeks TransUnion will be sold to two private equity companies, including Goldman Sachs. If Penny Pritzker is serious about job creation, she should do what she can to ensure that her company stops this abusive practice before the company is sold.
