Obama's Approval 45%

Eight months ago, America was captivated by this guy called Obama. Americans overwhelming supported him while turning a blind eye to his policy positions and what he actually said throughout his campaign. Now only eight months later we have a President who is only winning the approval of 45% of American's according to the latest Zogby poll.

American citizens have now come around and are seeing that when Obama talked about "change" he really meant bringing about a new socialist America. Every policy Obama and the Democrats in congress have tried to push through this year have been socialist in nature. To start Merrian-Webster defines socialism as "any of various economic and political theories advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods."

Lets look at the two big pocilies Obama has tried to get passed, first Cap-and-Trade. Under Cap-and-Trade, the government would set limits on the amount of emissions a bussiness would be allowed to emit. If the company went beyond their limit they would have to pay another person for their "share" of emissions. This is an example of government administering the distribution of wealth as large companies would be forced to pay others for a larger emission amount. Obama however forgets to tell the American people that these companies WILL pass on the price to their consumers.

Obama's second big policy is health care. Under Obama's plan, the government again would administer the distribution of health care by forcing those "rich" pay for the uninsured. We have all seen how well this has gone over with the American public.

If Obama keeps up with his current push towards socialism his approval ratings will drop as low as that of Cogress.
