and again this started with a bubble that burst before Obama even took office. This portion of shit you can't blame on Obama.
Obama supported those policies remember?
What I blame obama for is enacting an agenda that scares the living shit out of business people to the point where no one will do anything until he is gone.
For example - I don't only do debt collection. A lot of times - I get a client for liens and construction work, then they ask me "Hey - you do real estate?" "Can you handle this lease issue for me?" "Can you help me buy this business?" "My sister is buying a house - can you handle that for her?" "I'm looking to go into this new venture - can you draw up the paperwork and review the contracts?"
Because that ghetto communist has scared so many businesses into hibernation - those conversations are less and less because less business is being conducted overall.
