The head of industrial conglomerate 3M blasted the president as being "anti-business," claiming Obama has not done anything to improve the White House's relationship with Corporate America.
3M CEO George Buckley called Obama's policies "Robin Hood-esque" and told the Financial Times that manufacturers like 3M may have to shift production to other countries in order to stay competitive.
"We know what his instincts are ... he is anti business," Buckley said in an interview that ran late Sunday.
[...]
Buckley said his company, which makes thousands of products ranging from Post-It notes to Scotch Tape, "will do business where it's good and friendly."
Despite the recent public positions of other major business leaders, Buckley says he's not alone.
"There is a sense among companies that [the U.S.] is a difficult place to do business," he told the FT. "We've got a real choice between manufacturing in Canada or Mexico -- which tend to be more pro-business -- and America."
I never knew that making millions upon millions of dollars annually could make you such a blubbering pussy. It must be so hard to have such an anti-business president, who appoints ex-JP Morgan executives as his chief of staff, the former CEO of GE to a prominent economic council, who fairly regularly meets with other CEOs regarding economic issues, and who also met with and addressed the Chamber of Commerce even after they spent record amounts of money fucking over his agenda and Democratic candidates in general in the midterms. Obama is just so damned "Robin Hood-esque" and mean, especially when he supported the extension of ALL the Bush tax cuts despite the staggering fiscal crisis. Obama is just so mean! 3M is going to take all their toys and run away to play with the other nice kids that are good and friendly, because Obama is so anti-business that corporations are just suffering so badly right now:
American businesses earned profits at an annual rate of $1.659 trillion in the third quarter, according to a Commerce Department report released Tuesday. That is the highest figure recorded since the government began keeping track over 60 years ago, at least in nominal or noninflation-adjusted terms.
It's just disgusting, how anti-business this president is. Shameful. Egregious!
