Imagine that: investors think the greatest risk to the economy is Government!

Uncertainties?  Here’s a few just off the top of my head in 5 seconds:

  • Are taxes going up, down, or the same? 
  • Will the regulators with the conceit of "We know better" pile up tons of new regulations (or as the EPA is doing, issuing regulations with no regard to real world costs or reactions)? 
  • Are the Feds going to keep borrowing at such a rate that it drives interests up for everyone? 
  • Is Obama & company going to invoke a trade war that leaves everyone lying on the ground? 
  • With the EPA and Interior Dept shutting down energy exploration, distillation, and transport, what will my energy costs be? 
  • How much more expensive will my work force become because we STILL don’t know what is in Obamacare (or the regulations still in process)? 
  • Am I one of the lucky politically connected few, or an out of luck schmuck?
  1. Is Obama’s NLRB going to CONTINUE to tilt the marketplace such that unions will be effectively taking over my business?
  • These are just a few of the reasons that UNCERTAINTY caused by Govt is what investors fear – and the Govt can’t understand that they are the new Urkles.

    Co-founder of GraniteGrok, my concern is around Individual Liberty and Freedom and how the Government is taking that away. As an evangelical Christian and Conservative with small "L" libertarian leanings, my fight is with Progressives forcing a collectivized, secular humanistic future upon us. As a TEA Party activist, citizen journalist, and pundit!, my goal is to use the New Media to advance the radical notions of America's Founders back into our culture.
