Imelts firm stands as model for the Obama administration's vison of the American recovery. Jeffery Immelt cannot understand why more companies aren't hoarding money, evading taxes, and shipping jobs overseas.
It's bad enough we have to keep listening to all the noise coming out of the White House, about how "we" can do better and Obama believes in "us", and even though "he" has taken some lumps for "us", he's not giving up on "us", but now we have Jeffery Immelt, who is working as an an Obama lackey preaching to business on how to be profitable. With all the high minded lectures and finger pointing going on you could almost forget the fact that the only thing headed into the toilet faster than Obama's approval rating is GE's stock.
While GE enjoys most favored business status from the Obama regime, and huge tax breaks, government contracts, and probably a even a few holes of golf with "The Man" himself, the head of General Electric told a jobs summit at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Monday that businesses needed to take the lead on job creation.
"The people who are part of the business sector, the people in this room, have got to stop complaining about government and get some action underway," he told the group. "There's no excuse today for lack of leadership. The truth is we all need to be part of the solution."
Immelt also happens to be the chair of President Obama's Council on Jobs and Competitiveness.
Imelt goes on to say "We all need to be part of the solution.” This from a guy who’s in bed every day with part of the problem.
Sorry but my hypocrisy meter went off the charts on that one , Lack of leadership ?
Ah, yea, right.
