Perfect Obama Job Killing Storm

The Perfect Storm was a book made into a movie that showed how a storm could kill

A swordfishing boat unable to withstand the Perfect Storm’s butcher’s bill

In 1991 the Perfect Storm laid waste to the Atlantic coast and killed 13

Today a president who probably has never worked a day in the private sector and whose desire to control we cannot wean

With his pen since the elected representatives his misguided policies chose to ignore

Changed the rule on overtime pay so we must now watch employees being shown the door

Many a “manager” now thanks to this delusional president will be sent to overtime wages

Only to be discarded as the relentless push for higher minimum wages rage

In fast foods the designation of manager is not to the overtime rules avoid

But the first step to show the ability to manage, problems solve and a chance to advance not a career to be destroyed

Obama and his minions are the poster children of bureaucrats totally without a clue

Of how this capitalist engine of growth prospered and how despite Obama’s regs it grew

All of us are frustrated that under his watch wage growth is in a complete stall

But insuring “managers” will be laid off or hours reduced will decimate the Blues in the fall!
