Caterpillar Will Get What It Deserves

If the health care takeover passes then Caterpillar, the company that makes large earth moving equipment, will get exactly what it deserves. Caterpillar is howling about the bill because it claims that its health care costs will increase about 100 MILLION dollars in the first year alone. This is a bill that is supposed to decrease health care costs.

Caterpillar was walking hand in hand with Obama when he wanted to pass the stimulus and the company supported him in that process. Caterpillar was a useful idiot for Obama. He got what he wanted and now he could not care less about how the health care takeover effects this company. He valued the company’s input when he wanted its support and now that they have a different opinion about health care, Obama wants nothing to do with the company.

Caterpillar has no one to blame but itself. If you lie down with dogs you will get fleas and Obama is a dirty, flea bitten, mangy dog.

If this passes then I have no sympathy for Caterpillar and its increased health care costs which will certainly be passed on to consumers through higher equipment prices.

There are plenty of companies in other countries that make large earth moving equipment and they will not be handcuffed by the health care takeover so they will sell equipment at a lower price and gain business.

Caterpillar can try to hang on or go out of business. It is a tough lesson to learn but sometimes it takes a tough lesson for the information to actually sink in.

Hey Caterpillar, how’s that hope and change working out for you?
