Obama hype

On the radio they were talking about “hype”. How Americans have the habit of hyping up the poorer choice. One example they were using was VHS over Beta. According to experts Beta was the better tape, yet VHS spent more money in hyping itself and became the major brand. It seems to happen in everything Starbucks is another example. The other thing Americans enjoy is novelty. When a product is being hyped and it is novel it becomes wildly successful for a time then reality sets in and buyers remorse starts. Is this what is happening with the new president? Did he only win because of the hype and the fact he was the first black candidate? Is buyer’s remorse setting in and that is why he is having problems getting solid democratic backing? Is he really the best person in this position? None of his ideas appear to help the average working class American; they just seem to be aimed at alienating big business and corporations. Don’t say we need to blindly get behind him and support his proposals that’s how most dictatorships, start blind foolish support and obedience. This new green house gas tax on business is just going to drive more companies out of America. I think it would be a lot more intelligent to loosen EPA and other restrictions on businesses to bring them back, to have them expand, to put more Americans back to work. Down the road work with industry to keep jobs in the US and protect the environment intelligently not with knee jerk reactions. If Obama and his administration does not do something quickly to bring real manufacturing jobs back to the US we won’t need to worry about EPA regulations, we won’t have any businesses any tax base any country. Taxing and putting the harshest restrictions on businesses in the world is not going to get the US going again. 4% percent of the popular vote was not a mandate or landslide by any stretch of an imagination. Obama has a long way to go to prove he is the best person for the position he holds and driving jobs out of the country doesn’t appear to me to be pro American. Maybe the radio show was correct and the hyped product is the worst choice or maybe Obama can prove that theory wrong. It’s all up to him.
