There's one critic Obama can't silence—one critic Obama can't ridicule or intimidate.
There's one critic who will never be afraid to point a finger at Obama and condemn his stupid ideas, and this critic has a very harsh assessmet of Obama's performance.
Obama's toughest critic is the market. At this point, there is no question that the market is circling the drain as a result of Obama's plans, policies and propaganda.

I don’t make enough to put me in the $250K+ bracket that Obama will be targeting. Despite that, I am doing everything I can to lower my tax footprint by maximizing my 401K contributions and perhaps working less overtime at work. I simply do not want to work harder so I can fund these socialist programs that will damage our economy.
I have a friend in Denmark who tells me that workers there don’t especially value pay raises because they’ll lose 70% to taxes. Instead, their preferred bonus is extra vacation time, as the government can’t claim 70% of that (yet).
Me? I’ll probably go back to school and ride out the recession with education entitlements instead of doing anything productive. The best way to fight entitlement programs, after all, is to bleed them dry instead of feeding them.
I wonder if our intrepid social engineers simply don’t understand basic human behavior and the correlation between productivity and quality of life, or if they simply see economic equality as a more noble goal for society than high quality of life.

Geithner and Obama are absolutely dependent on the ignorance of the American people here.
