We Still Have Richard Nixon To Kick Around …
President Obama has been blamed for high unemployed, deficit, and not being patriotic. Mostly by Republicans critical analysis of him … I believe Republicans give the impression they are bullet proof (above criticism, condemnation, let's blame the democrats) … However if you look back 50 yrs to the era of President Nixon you will see the real reason for a majority of our problems in 2011 (deficit, high-unemployment, devalued dollar) began under and were caused by Nixon.

Now let’s face it the Republicans have put forth some great presidents in the past Eisenhower a 10 Reagan a 10+, Bush I a 7 to 8 … but Republicans have tried also tired to pull the wool over are eyes on a few also like Herbert Hoover – Great Depression I, Bush II – Failure to Monitor Economic/Monetary Indicators resulted in Economic Chaos/Flash Crash, but the worst in the last 50 years by far, the one that caused today’s problems and permanent damage to the country is Richard Milhous Nixon … Still consider by some a great President and man … Even though he sealed our economic fate by decisions he made in 1970 ...

Why was Nixon elected?
.
America knew Richard Nixon or so they thought. Nixon started in politics in 1945 in California, won a Congressional seat in the late 40’s, was Eisenhower’s VP from 52-59, ran for President against JFK in 1960, and Governor of California in 64. He lost both. Nixon to this day is the most photographed politician in U.S. history.
.
Nixon won his first term as President more out of necessity and by being the only candidate that made any sense to the Silent Majority. Nixon a familiar name had in 68 been on the political scene for decades since the late 1940s. The Democrats in 68 had 4 parties in the Democrats Party in 68 Dixiecrats – Geo Wallace, Geo McGovern anti-war, Eugene McCarty another anti-war, Hubert Humphrey who got the Democratic Nomination with more or less same policies as JBL.

1968 ...
By the time of the 1968 presidential election rolled around, Americans looked at America and saw it’s cities in enveloped in smoke and flame with protests against the war and race everywhere. And the assassinations RFK and MLK …

Plus our nation was tied down since the early 1960s in a war in Vietnam with no end in sight; economy chaos, respect for the rule of law at new lows plagued by unprecedented lawlessness; when our nation that was supposed to represent equality of opportunity for all was torn by unprecedented racial violence; plus many at that time considered the current President LBJ to be a pathological liar.
.
It was time for new leadership but not much to choice … The choices were A. Nixon or B. Hubert H. Humphrey considered too be a clone of LBJ or more of the same.

Nixon’s 4 Laws & Policies that Effect Us Today & Destroyed America …
- In 1971 Nixon signed into law the end of the gold standard, a bill which he endorsed. From that point on we had no control over the value of the U.S. dollar. Gold no longer backed up our money. By March 1976, the U.S. Dollar's value was determined by free floating rates on the world currency exchange - money market. The dollar's value was no longer under direct U.S. control which resulted in giving the Federal Reserve more power in administering U.S. monetary policy.
- In1970 OSHA (China has no OSHA) was created by and signed into law by President Richard Nixon. (Reference his State of the Union Address). OSHA tied the hands of all U.S. industries. OHSAs main goal (lofty goal but way over done) is to ensure that employers provide employees with an environment free from recognized hazards, such as exposure to toxic chemicals, excessive noise levels, mechanical dangers, heat or cold stress, or unsanitary conditions.
- EPA (China has no EPA) - Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA was proposed by President Nixon and signed into law by him in 1970. The EPA is responsible for setting and enforcing environmental laws. Yet another law that tied the hands of our Fortune 1000 and most all U.S. industries.
- Opened diplomatic relations with mainland China commonly referred to as Red China”. Nixon's 1972 China trip and talks, resulted in the introduction of low cost labor and products in the world market in direct competition with the American worker and U.S industrial base. Many experts believe Nixon Shock arrogance of ignorance is helping the spread of communism throughout the world and destroying our middle class.
