Yes, everything is Obama's fault. Heaven forbid we blame the big banks and hedge funds and scumbag companies like the aforemetnioned JP for all the problems. Let's spread the blame where it is due: the so-called less government; i.e free market/no regulation/anything goes is one of the biggest problems we have. And, I might add, has been a much more likely tie-in to companies like LBSR not getting funding. Oh and those big banks and Wall Street are still doing the same things they were doing before 2008. No wonder so much of the world now is cynical about the American capitalist system. It's great for the Wall Street guys. We can pay for their parites and their cocaine and their strippers. Sorry for the rant. Just sick of everything being blamed on Obama while banks get away with activities that could bring us all down for years.
