55 percent of small business owners would not start company today, blame Obama

Fifty-five percent of small business owners and manufacturers would not have started their businesses in today’s economy, according to a new poll that also reports 69 percent say President Obama’s regulatory policies have hurt their businesses.

“There is far too much uncertainty, too many burdensome regulations and too few policymakers willing to put aside their egos and fulfill their responsibilities to the American people,” said Jay Timmons, president of the National Association of Manufacturers, which commissioned the poll along with the National Federation of Independent Businesses. “To fix this problem, we need immediate action on pro-growth tax and regulatory policies that put manufacturers in the United States in a position to compete and succeed in an ever-more competitive global economy.”

The poll reports another ominous statistic for job creation: “67 percent say there is too much uncertainty in the market today to expand, grow or hire new workers.” Why? Because “President Obama’s Executive Branch and regulatory policies have hurt American small businesses and manufacturers,” according to 69 percent of the business owners surveyed.

Bolding, mine. If obama gets re-elected, expect unemployment to stay the same or grow higher. Reasonable people cannot continue blaming Bush when it is obama's own policies of over regulation and taxes (obamacare) and letting the tax cuts expire at the end of the year that are stagnating this nation's economic growth. Once obamacare kicks in, there will probably be many small businesses who close their doors, leading to even more unemployment. Banks are sitting tight on money, too, thanks to Dodd-Frank.
