I don't care what anyone else says, I think that President Obama's plan for the economy is working. I am really encouraged to see a lot of new businesses starting up. There is a new Wal-Mart being built in the Central Business District of St. Petersburg, Florida. Several Wal-Mart stores in Pinellas County of Florida have been converted to Super Wal-Marts. There are many other large chains opening up new branches in this area. Personally, I have seen two new Save-A-Lot stores, a new HobbyLobby in Port Richey, just to name a few. It is also really great to see some new small businesses starting up. It takes a great deal of courage, effort and hard work to make a small business work, but more people, including me, are going to make it work. You can't give any credit to Governor Crist, he was to busy saying anything and everything so he can be elected to the U. S. Senate.
This is so much different from just a year ago! We were still in the "Dark Times", the time during George W. Bush's first four years as an "appointed President" by the U. S. Supreme Court, then when in 2004 when he actually won an election. The policies and decisions made during his administration caused a major economic meltdown and the nation is finally starting to come out of it.
During the campaign, the Republician's were screaming about the national debt. What a bunch of hypocrites! When President Clinton left office, there was a budget surplus. Bush's tax cuts for the multi-millionaires and the massive war he started (against his father's advice-President Bush, Sr. adviced not to go to war without an exit strategy in place!) caused the massive deficit. President Obama had to take drastic measures to fix the mess.
