Uncertainty
I missed this interview with casino mogul and real estate developer Steve Wynn when it aired in April. I listed his claims and the one that struck me the most is the growing sense of uncertainty about upcoming legislative initiatives and regulatory proposals from the current administration and Congress. Not good for economic growth prospects:
Interesting take on The Tea Party.
His chants of, "It's got to stop!", have been chanted by about 50% of the citizens for many years. I blame the constant split on the 2 party system. It's convenient to take any issue and make one side correct and the other incorrect, unless of course, they are both very wrong. When you have 2 sides that are completely wrong, who should you support?
To make matters worse, you have 2 sides that basically do the same things, but blame the other party for any problems that occur. Look at Obama continuing with the same war efforts he swore he'd end. Look at Bush not vetoing bills that were clearly not what he promised to when an election. It's a conspiracy theorist dream when this is pointed out. Both sides continuing on the same unconstitutional path that is destroying the nation while the pundits divide the nation with rhetorical debates? Not suspicious? The suspicion and uncertainty breed fear.
I don't know much about this guy, but he has the same message of every business person I know. It's a simple message that they are being crushed and it's falling on deaf ears in Washington.
