How Will Manufacturing Be Affected by the 2012 Election?

 

The truth is, no one knows yet the effect yesterday's election will have on manufacturing in the un-United States of America. The split of the electorate is a tell-tale sign of this fact. The meaning of the re-election of President Obama, says many things.

• One, people are confused and rightfully so. They have been promised so much that hasn't occurred.
• Two, there are at least two ideas of how this nation should move going forward: 1)Do everything we can to fix the economy or 2) Let it ride!
• Three, we can't count on our politicians to fix anything.

Then there is our mess in California! We are more than $2 Trillion in debt yet:

•  One we are building a $200 billion high speed train we don't need and won't use.
• Two, we can't say no to spending.
• Three, we can't count on our politicians to fix anything.

So, here we are in the same mess we started with before the elections with no fix in sight. Our best guess on the affectation of the elections has to be the continuation of the status-quo. Hold on team, we just have to continue to hold on.
