It astounds me why people still care so much about Obama's "anti-business agenda", as if people forgot checks and balances exist - or that the vast, vast majority of Americans, no matter their political stripe, have never lived under an anti-business state. At the same time, to reject an argument in favour of some consideration for the collective is stereotypically American.

Oh well, at least we now know neoliberalism can't be truly defeated until we give different names to the 5 subtypes of capital out there.

So Obama is telling a business owner, let's say a paint store owner for argument sake, that the roads weren't built by his business?!  Then where did the money come from to build the road if not from tax revenue generated through sales and employees of the business?

If you're going to use logic like that, you may as well say God built everything.
