| Since this 2008 DNC speech, Obama has turned USA's economy into Greece |
She continues: "For example, much of Greece's problems have been caused by an unsustainable and counterproductive growth in the public sector and in labor unions. The Greek unions' demands have become more exorbitant over the years and place an extraordinary burden on the Greek government which can no longer sustain the silly and irrational policies once promised. Sadly, Mr. Obama has not only borrowed fake Greek columns, but he has adopted the same economic nonsense."
More: "Greece has been guilty of out-of-control spending. Their national deficit as a percentage of GDP has continued to escalate over the past decade. How is that so different than what Obama has endorsed as a path for the U.S.? Obama's profligate spending on a [s]timulus that didn't stimulate and almost 5 trillion dollars spent in four years have brought this nation to the point where our public debt, exceeds our GDP and still, our nation’s government continues to demand increases to the debt ceiling to continue its deficit spending. As if these similarities with Greece were not enough, consider long-sustained, and growing unemployment in the US, and the growing underground economy of illegal immigrants and workers who cannot be taxed, but who tax the social services systems of the country and require expanded entitlements. Is becoming more like Greece, with escalating unemployment, really the kind of hope and change that the American people wanted?"
