My Predictions from November 4, 2008

(These originally appeared on RaisingAmerica but now I guess that's an invite only blog)
Here are my predictions for what will happen during or by the end of the Obama Presidency


1. Unemployment will be at 8 percent or more
2. Gas prices will rise again to 4 dollars a gallon and stay within 50 cents of that.
3. Health Care will be nationalized
4. The government will institute a harsh windfall profits tax on oil Companies
5. The Dow Jones will be within 200 points of 9500 by January 1, 2012
6. Inflation will be between 8-10 percent
7. The Supreme Court will be liberal
8. There will be a severe threat to our national security, like the Cuban Missile Crisis
9. A cap and trade system will be instituted in the United States
10. There will not be any federal tax cuts for anyone
11. The partial birth abortion ban will be declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court
12. Most US troops will be out of Iraq by 2011, according to the timetable already setup by the Bush administration, but Obama will take credit for it and not acknowledge that the war was already won through the surge, but that he ended it by "redeploying" our troops
13. There will be a nuclear, biological, chemical, or other attack on an American or an American allied city
14. The oceans will continue to rise
15. Interest rates will rise to 12 percent and hover within 2 points of that

Double Dip

The only solution is to reign in spending, reform entitlements, and let the economy know what is going to be happening for the next 10 years. The economy needs stability, and not constant threats from the administration. The whole argument over Obamacare is hampering the economy in and of itself. If there was no question Obamacare was here to stay then at least companies would know what to plan for. But because the Democrats crammed it down the throat of the American people it is still up in the air and businesses don't know how to plan. This is a horrible administration that is ruling against the will of the American people. They are trying to push an unpopular agenda on a reluctant populace. These are not servants of the people, these are little tyrants who know their time in power is short, and they are trying to do as much damage as they can before we come for them in November 2012.
