you'd have to ask the thousands of individuals who are sitting on the trillions of dollars
but it might not be too far a reach to speculate that they are hesitating because of all the uncertainty clouding this economy---in obamacare, in the reg reform, in energy policy...
Again, those aspects of "ObamaCare" that affect businesses large and small don't take affect until 2012...2014? So, how does its implementation 1-3 yrs from now affect businesses today? If a business can't project its budget 1-yr out maybe it deserves to go out of business.
heck, this admin couldn't even come down on americans' precise 2012 relationship with the irs until almost new year's eve.
Bad planning by Congress, not the Obama Administration. The White House neither writes nor implements tax law. Those are issues to be taken up with either Congress or the IRS.
resentment may also play a role
perhaps some of our uber rich feel they've been demonized and villified at every turn by this woebegone white house, which has in actuality done a whole lot more to protect and reward the fatcats and toobigs while doing almost nothing for the normal nates and nells while especially neglecting our african american neighbors and friends (ask the cbc)
Huh? What does "demonizing and vilifying the uber rich" have to do with "neglecting African Americans"? Not only is this a foolish assessment, it's not even factual. Moreover, hasn't it been your side of the political divide who continue to make the claim that the President is too Black for his own good and that his policies have alienated the Wall Street elite? Your commentary makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
