Restrictions on oil and gas drilling will cost the U.S. economy $2.36 trillion

Has anyone notice how the word trillon comes up often since Obama has been the president? This leader is costing the taxpayers more money than any other leaders of the past that I can think of! Obama is bankrupting America just as Bin Laden said when he made the comment that the next attack would come from within our own government! Think about it, what has been happening since Nov, 2008!

Restrictions on oil and gas drilling will cost the U.S. economy $2.36 trillion through 2029, according to a study requested by state utility regulators and paid for in part by industry-sponsored groups. SOURCE

Americans and businesses may be asking: Where’s my tax refund?

This year, more Americans and businesses may be asking: Where’s my tax refund?

That’s because cash-strapped states such as North Carolina, Alabama and Hawaii have been forced to slow down issuing income tax refunds to individuals and businesses because of a lack of funds in their budget.

Kansas has hinted that a delay might be possible, and processing paper refunds in Iowa has slowed because the state doesn’t haven’t enough employees to get them processed faster.

Another state, New York, is still considering whether they’ll follow the likes of Hawaii and delay refund payments.

“States typically do this when they are tight and they don’t have a budget in place,” said Karla Dennis, SOURCE

So do you think things are getting better, or can’t you see beyond your nose that things are worst now a little over a year of Barack Obama?

Obama’s budget plans would generate deficits over the upcoming decade that would total $9.8 trillion.

A new congressional report released Friday says the United States’ long-term fiscal woes are even worse than predicted by President Barack Obama’s grim budget submission last month. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office predicts that Obama’s budget plans would generate deficits over the upcoming decade that would total $9.8 trillion. That’s $1.2 trillion more than predicted by the administration. The agency says its future-year predictions of tax revenues are more pessimistic than the administration’s. That’s because CBO projects slightly slower economic growth than the White House. The deficit picture has turned alarmingly worse since the recession that started at the end of 2007, never dipping below 4 percent of the size of the economy over the next decade. Economists say that deficits of that size are unsustainable and could put upward pressure on interest rates, crowd out private investment in the economy and ultimately erode the nation’s standard of living.

Not sounding good for Americans is it! I will ask again, Are you better off today than 3 years ago? I sure don’t think so!
