Report has been heard that Barack Obama (and why did I not mention any title prefacing the Kenyan-born boy's name?) has recently taken credit for an economic upswing throughout America, and wants to tax the very rich.

Republicans have apparently countered by stating their continued effort to repeal unfairly-socialistic Obamascare insurance apportionment not at all insuring "health" either mentally or physically.

The Scripture verse:

Second Corinthians 10:18 It is not the man who commends himself that is accepted, but the man whom the Lord commends.

One acceptable application of that is Obama's claim that HE (and maybe also his who have conveniently come and gone). . . with their obvious lying about the location of his allegedly-"Hawaiian" birthplace, their promotion of same-gender homosodomy-unions licensing and law rulings given to activists for feminist sexism and abortion choice, their antagonism toward Israelis regarding their holy-land settlements, and their financial bolstering of antisemitic groups ranging from CAIR to Hizbollah to Hamas other anti-Zionist so-called "palestinians" (even directly or indirectly including Al Qaeda operatives) - is to be lauded for slight economic betterment throughout the United States?

But who actually is to be given credit for such improvement?

I would suggest that those more-or-less obedient to the Holy Bible (as much as they have been, in various ways) are the cause for our country not collapsing financially [not merely benefits-enhancing Democrats but spending-restraint Republicans of the House and most Senators in the U.S. Senate], in view of:

Psalm 37:3 Trust in the LORD [not Obama nor Obamanation], and do good; so you will reside in the land [of America], and enjoy security.
37:4 Take delight in the LORD [not Obama nor Obamanation], and He will give you the desires of your heart.
37:5 Commit your way to the LORD [not Obama nor Obamanation]; trust in Him [not Obama nor Obamanation], and He [not Obama nor Obamanation] will act.
37:6 He [not Obama nor Obamanation] will bring forth your vindication as the light, and your right as the noonday.
37:7 Be still before the LORD, and wait patiently for Him; do not get upset because of him [not Obama nor Obamanation] who prospers in his way, over the man who carries out evil devices!
37:8 Refrain from anger, and reject wrath! Do not worry yourself; it tends only to evil.
37:9 For the [not Obama nor Obamanation] wicked shall be cut off; but those who wait for the LORD shall possess the land.
37:10 Yet a little while, and the [not Obama nor Obamanation] wicked will be no more; though you look well at [their] place, [they] will not be there.
37:11 But the meek shall possess the land, and delight themselves in abundant prosperity.
37:12 The [not Obama nor Obamanation] wicked plots against the [authentic-Christian] righteous, and gnashes [their] teeth at him;
37:13 but the LORD laughs at the wicked, for He sees that "[their] day is coming."
37:14 The [legislators and judges of Obamanation] wicked draw the sword and bend their bows, to bring down the poor and needy, to slay those who walk uprightly;
37:15 their sword shall enter their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
37:16 Better is a little that the righteous has than the abundance of many [pre-Trib-Rapture-presuming] wicked.
37:17 For the arms of the [cross-of-Christ/persecution-despising, "we-won't-die-but-be-snatched-instead," pre-Trib-Rapture non-thinking] wicked shall be broken; but the LORD upholds the righteous.
37:18 The LORD knows the days of the blameless, and their heritage will reside forever;
37:19 they are not put to shame in evil times, in the days of famine they have abundance.
37:20 But the [suckhole-to-feminists-or-you-won't-get-promoted] wicked perish; the enemies of the [men-should-rightly-be-in-charge] LORD are like the glory of the pastures, they vanish ... like smoke they vanish away.
37:21 The wicked borrows, and cannot pay back, but the righteous is generous and gives;
37:22 for those blessed by the LORD shall possess the land, but those cursed by Him shall be cut off.
37:23 The steps of a man [or woman] are from the LORD, and He establishes him/her in whose way He delights;
37:24 though he/she fall, he [or she] shall not be thrown headlong, for the LORD is the stay of his [and her] hand.
37:25 I have been young, and now am old; yet I have not seen the righteous rejected or his children begging bread.
37:26 He is ever giving liberally and lending, and his children become a blessing.
37:27 Depart from evil, and do good; so shall you reside forever.
37:28 For the LORD loves justice; He will not reject his saints. The righteous shall be preserved forever, but the children of the wicked shall be cut off [whether by abortion homicide, or Acts-of-God accidents, vandalism or robbery, crippling diseases or injuries, or whatever].
37:29 The righteous shall possess the land, and reside upon it forever.
37:30 The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks justice.
37:31 The law of his God is in his heart; his steps do not slip.
37:32 The [Obamanite] wicked watches the righteous, and seeks to slay him.
37:33 The LORD will not abandon him to his power, or let him be condemned when he is brought to trial.
37:34 Wait for the LORD, and keep to His way, and He will exalt you to possess the land; you will look on the destruction of the [Obamanite] wicked.
37:35 I have seen a [Obamanite] wicked man overbearing, and towering like a cedar of Lebanon.
37:36 Again I passed by, and, wow, he was no more; though I sought him, he could not be found.
37:37 Mark the blameless man, and consider the upright, for there is posterity for the man of peace.
37:38 But [Obamanite] transgressors shall be altogether destroyed; the posterity of the [Obamanite] wicked shall be cut off.
37:39 The salvation of the righteous is from the LORD; He is their refuge in the time of trouble.
37:40 The LORD helps them and delivers them; He delivers them from the wicked, and saves them, because they take refuge in Him.

Proverbs 14:34 Righteousness [not promotion of anti-submissive/anti-patriarchal pseudo-"equality" feminism, homogay/homosodomite perversion, anti-burka/hijab summertime immodesty, porno "art," pseudo-"scientific" evolution, anti-Israel antisemitism] exalts a nation, but [anti-submissive/anti-patriarchal pseudo-"equality" feminism, homogay/homosodomite perversion, anti-burka/hijab summertime immodesty, porno "art," pseudo-"scientific" evolution, anti-Israel antisemitism] sin is a reproach to any people.

Ecclesiastes 2:26 For to the man/woman who pleases him [and her] God gives wisdom and knowledge and joy [and upright coital/conjugal satisfaction and orgasm of the highest order]; but to the sinner He gives the work of gathering and heaping, only to give to one who pleases God. This also is vanity and a striving after wind.

Ecclesiastes 5:13 There is a grievous evil which I have seen under the sun: riches were kept by their owner to his hurt,
5:14 and those riches were lost in a bad venture; and he is father of a son, but he has nothing in his hand.
5:15 As he came from his mother's womb he shall go again, naked as he came, and shall take nothing for his toil, which he may carry away in his hand.
5:16 This also is a grievous evil: just as he came, so shall he go; and what gain has he that he worked for the wind,
5:17 and spent all his days in darkness and grief, in much vexation and sickness and resentment?

Ecclesiastes 9:11 Again I saw that under the Sun the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to the intelligent, nor favor to the men of skill; but time and chance happen to them all.
9:12 For humans do not know their time. Like fish which are taken in an evil net, and like birds which are caught in a snare, so the sons [and daughters] of men [and women] are snared at an evil time, when it suddenly falls upon them.
9:13 I have also seen this example of wisdom under the sun, and it seemed great to me.
9:14 There was a little city with few men in it; and a great king came against it and besieged it, building great siegeworks against it.
9:15 But there was found in it a poor wise man [probably Republican-Party-oriented, because of their general stances on sexual social issues, of whom yours truly is one], and he by his wisdom delivered the city. Yet no one remembered that poor man.
9:16 But I say that wisdom is better than might, though the poor man's wisdom is despised, and his words are not heeded.
9:17 The words of the wise heard in quiet are better than the shouting of a ruler among fools.
9:18 Wisdom is better than weapons of war, but one sinner destroys much good.

Even one indecently-hairstyled female-human mophead within a group pollutes the entire group [and "the name of God is blasphemed among the nations because of purportedly-"christian" them," as Scripture states in Romans 2:24].

Maybe Franklin Roosevelt was thinking about himself being taken care of in his old age when he instituted Social Security, based upon amount of wages and income obtained (plus monitored, apportioned, and required by a somewhat-indiscriminate-regarding-sexual-morality Egyptian-bondage-like Income-Tax-on-idolatrous-slaves:

Second Thessalonians 3:10 For even when we were with you, we gave you this command: If any one will not work, let him not eat.

Perhaps FDR took America off the Gold Standard and onto to fiat Federal Reserve paper to prevent gold-stealing Nazi Party subversives in America from taking over in this country back in the 30s, as the thieving gangsters of Chicago robbed banks during that time.

Perhaps Roosevelt respected senior citizens, and did not slate them for helpless and hopeless hospice-facilitated euthanasia, but to have established for them retirement resources to adequately live and thrive in their elderly years of predictably-occurring disabilities:

Leviticus 19:32 You shall rise up before the hoary head, and honor the face of an old man, and you shall fear your God: "I am the LORD."

First Timothy 5:8 If any one does not provide for his relatives, and especially for his own family, he has disowned the faith and is worse than a disbeliever.

All those were and are Christian motivations -- not satanic ones [as with Obamanation conniving and allowing whatever they could and can to stay in power to oppress orthodox Biblicists who they should not oppress, and fortify pushy, noxious, spam-like homoqueers and other divisive who they should not fortify]:

Second Chronicles 19:2 But Jehu the son of Hanani the seer went out to meet him, and said to King Jehoshaphat, "Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the LORD? Because of this, wrath has gone out against you from the LORD."

Isaiah 5:8 Woe to those [city-council tyrants who concoct sewer-and-gutter projects and senior-condo boondoggles at local-homeowner's expense, and thus] join house to house, who add field to field, until there is no more room, and you are made to reside alone in the midst of the land.

Deuteronomy 27:19 'Cursed be he who perverts the justice due to the traveler, the fatherless, and the widow.' And all the people shall say: 'Amen.'

Job 6:27 You would even gamble over the fatherless, and bargain over your friend.

Psalm 10:17 Oh LORD, you will hear the desire of the meek; you will strengthen their heart, you will incline your ear
Psalm 10:18 to do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed, so that man who is of Earth may strike terror no more.

Isaiah 1:23 Your [federal/state/county-bureaucrat] princes are rebels and companions of [insensitive and heartless commercial-real-estate developer] thieves. Every one loves a bribe and runs after gifts. They do not defend the fatherless, and the widow's cause does not come to them.

Jeremiah 22:3 Thus says the LORD: Do justice and righteousness, and deliver from the hand of the [raised-tax-inspector-and-assessor] oppressor him who has been robbed. And do no wrong or violence to the alien, the fatherless, and the widow, nor shed innocent blood in this place.

Ezekiel 22:7 Father and mother are treated with contempt in you; the traveler suffers extortion in your midst; the fatherless and the widow are wronged in you.

Isaiah 5:18 Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of falsehood, who draw sin as with cart ropes.

Isaiah 5:20 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil [who call homosexuality up-to-date and good but call heterosexuality boring or evil, who call traditional patriarchy "evil" but pseudo-"equality" sexist feminism "good," who call Genesis creationism fairy-tale-myth "evil" but call pseudo-"scientific" evolutionist-mythology "good," who call anti-Zionist "palestinians" "good" and Israeli Jews "evil," who call the industrious and innovative very rich "evil," and lazy vandals spraying graffiti on walls doing drugs "good," who call murdering womb babies "good" but women being delivered of babies unhealthy, oppressed, and "evil"], who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!

Isaiah 5:21 Woe to those [democrats in Congress like Reid and Schumer and Durbin, Murray and Feinstein] who are wise in their own eyes, and shrewd in their own sight!
Isaiah 5:22 Woe to those who are heroes at drinking wine [religiously trotting to liquor stores especially on Fridays and before holidays, then sleeping in on Sunday mornings without attending church services], and valiant men in mixing strong drink.
Isaiah 10:1 Woe to those [electronic and newsprint mediapersons] who decree iniquitous decrees, and the [newspaper and tabloid and magazine and internet] writers who keep writing oppression.
Isaiah 29:15 Woe to those [like Reid and Pelosi] who hide deep from the LORD their counsel, whose [secretly-concocting-a-mammoth-Obamascare-bill-without-Republican-input] deeds are in the dark, and who say, "Who sees us? Who knows us?"
Isaiah 31:1 Woe to those who are dependent upon Saudis and Iran and Venezuela for imported oil and rely on foreign imports, who trust in military weaponry because they are many and in tanks, aircraft carriers, and fighter jets because they are very strong, but do not look to the Holy One of Israel or consult the LORD!

Micah 2:1 Woe to those who devise wickedness and work evil upon their beds! When the morning dawns, they commit it, because it is in the power of their hand.

And Obamanation cruelly and indiscriminately taxing the rich?

Matthew 23:4 They [Obamanation's Lois Lerner, Kathleen Sebelius, Eric Holder, et al] bind heavy burdens, hard to bear, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with their finger.

Mark 12:40 [Obamanatie feds and local city-council tyrants] who devour widows' houses and for a pretense make long prayers. They will receive the greater condemnation."
Luke 20:47 [homosexuality-promotive and feminist-agitator legislators] who devour widows' houses and for a pretense make long prayers. They will receive the greater condemnation."

For those moved by the Spirit of Christ Jesus, His literal Torah law and mercy, and not capricious and inappropriate harshness of sharia whims, the following is a matter of VOLUNTARY (and not FORCED) appreciation:

Matthew 6:25 "Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall drink, nor about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?
6:26 Look at the birds of the air: they neither plant nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?
6:27 And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit to his duration of life?
6:28 And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither labor nor spin;
6:29 yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
6:30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, humans of little faith?
6:31 Therefore do not be anxious, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?'
6:32 For the nations seek all these things; and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all.
6:33 But seek FIRST His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things shall be yours as well.
6:34 Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Let the day's own trouble be sufficient for the day."

Matthew 7:6 "Do not give [homopervert] dogs what is holy; and do not throw your [financial-and-donation contribution] pearls before [anti-morality, ACLU/PAW/AUSCS/Human-Rights/Jewish-Defamation, racist-reparations, feminist, homosexual, atheistic, porno-immmodest, antisemitic, anti-creation evolutionist] swine, lest they trample them under foot and turn to attack you.

Admission fees are expected to enter movie theaters. Gas is pre-pay at pumps. Food must be paid for at checkout counters. Utility repair is paid for on the spot upon completion of the work. Utility bills have a due date.

But, unlike excessive and forced taxation imposed by ruthless and self-interested bureaucrats, giving to church offering plates is voluntary:

Acts 5:3 But Peter said, "Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back part of the proceeds of the land?
Acts 5:4 While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, was it not at your disposal? How is it that you have contrived this deed in your heart? You have not [fatally] lied to men but to God."

Hebrews 13:16 Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.

Philemon 1:14 ...but I preferred to do nothing without your consent in order that your goodness might not be by compulsion but of your own free will. No objected-to molestation, nor non-solicited assault (either by being immodestly misdressed nor [consequential] rape).

"Free will?"

No wonder FDR's VOLUNTARY system of Social Security and Lyndon Johnson's VOLUNTARY Medicare has worked (and continues to work) so well.

Based on Christian doctrines. Not gambling insecure "investments" on the Stock Market like some Republicans suggest.

And not with forced Obamascare -- which is neither "affordable" [to many] nor is "care" [to the same].

Based on satanic worship of him who is grossly-and-absurdly-miscalled: "president."

Hey, even the future 666-Mark of the Beast will be a voluntary option, NOT mandatory - and thus will be most-cooperatively well-received by those destined for eternal solitary-confinement Outer-Darkness punishment within invisible flames of the Lake of Fire.

There is the record in the New-Testament book of Acts that early Christians, and especially their leaders, voluntarily shared not merely for their mutual survival as a new religious group, but in compliance with their own Scriptures, and especially in allegiance to their Savior and Lord Jesus Christ and His Spirit residing within them:

Acts 2:37 Now when they heard this they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, "Brethren, what shall we do?"
2:38 And Peter said to them, "Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
2:39 For the promise is to you and to your children and to all that are far off, every one whom the Lord our God calls to him."
2:40 And he testified with many other words and exhorted them, saying, "Save yourselves from this crooked generation."
2:41 So those who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls.
2:42 And they devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.
2:43 And fear came upon every soul; and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles.
2:44 And all who believed were together and had all things in common;
2:45 and they sold their possessions and goods and distributed them to all, as any had need.
2:46 And day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they partook of food with glad and generous hearts,
2:47 praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.

Quite a different motivation for demoncrat Obamanation (unlike the Christian mentality of Social-Security-incepting FDR and Perpetuator-of-Such-Foresightful-Provision Truman):

38 And Obama said to them, "Vote for me, and I will tax you both covertly and overtly to concoct a insurance-destroying-and-diverting scheme in secret called "affordable care" which is anything but affordable nor care against those who involuntarily have their health insurance rates raised.
39 For the promise of insurmountable national debt is passed off to your non-muslim improverished children, if you are dumb enough to have any without aborting them first, which the federal government and courts demand for all who are near and far off.
40 And he blattered a lot of other rhetoric at them, saying: "Turn against the Bush-and-Boehner-faulted repressive religious right to regain prosperity."
41 And illegal aliens let into America by Obamanation became non-eligible voter demoncrats, causing Obama to win election in both 2008 and 2012, not to mention voting for the sophisticated-and-arrogantly-sassy goof Obama instead of philosophically-meadering morality-minded Alan Keyes for the Illinois Senate back in 2004.
42 and devoted themselves to anti-Christian indoctrination of marxist Obamanite socialism, homogay imposition, abortion protection, women-supposedly-equal-with-men sexist feminism, porno sex education, pseudo-"scientific" origins propaganda in public schools mandatorily funded by Christian taxpayers who did not want to fund evolutionist heresy, porn as "art," anti-patriarchal feminism, murderous abortion homicide, and the sickening depravity of anti-heterosexual effeminate homosodomy.
43 And depression came upon the righteous besieged and beleaguered by tyrannical Obamanation, in accord with " When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices; and when the wicked perish (and are voted out like in 2010 and 2014) there are shouts of gladness [Proverbs 11:10]. And much taxpayer waste occurred through Obamanite bureaucrats who selfishly horded taxpayer money for themselves and their perverse causes, and who burdened the taxpayers in general with impractical boondoggles for the sake of anti-human wacko environmentalists.
44 And Obama forced the righteous to give to the wicked, without forcing the wicked to give to the righteous, forced employers to hire and raise the minimum wage of lazy pompous blacks and drugs-dealing hispanics simply because of their race and skin color, so no one willfully shared with who they should or wanted to share with.
45 And they sold their possessions for the sake of their own greed for money, and distributed the profits to themselves and those of their demented political ilk.
46 And day by day, swallowing in pro-Obamanite pseudo-"presidential" media puffing of Obamanation, lavishly eating out in expensive restaurants and guzzling booze, they stuffed their mouths with malicious hearts, "foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing their days in malice and envy, hated by men and hating one another" [Titus 3:3].
47 praising Obama as false-messiah savior and getting demonic media approval but not from true Christians. And Satan added to their number day by day those those who were being damned.

Psalm 37:21 The [trillions-dollars-in-national-debt] wicked borrows, and cannot pay back, but the righteous is generous and gives.
Proverbs 10:25 When the [tornadic-winds-ripping-through-activist-homosexuals-territory] tempest passes, the wicked is no more, but the righteous is established forever.
Proverbs 11:24 One man gives freely, yet grows all the richer; another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want.
Proverbs 11:28 He who trusts in his riches will wither, but the righteous will flourish like a green leaf.
Proverbs 12:13 An evil man is ensnared by the transgression of his lips, but the righteous escapes from trouble.
Proverbs 14:32 The wicked is overthrown through his evil-doing, but the righteous finds refuge through his integrity.
Proverbs 21:26 All day long the wicked covets, but the righteous gives and does not hold back.

Proverbs 28:1 The wicked flee when no one pursues, but the righteous are bold as a lion.
Proverbs 29:16 When the wicked are in authority, transgression increases; but the righteous will look upon their downfall.
Habakkuk 2:4 Hey, he whose soul is not upright in him shall fail, but the righteous shall live by his faith.
Matthew 25:46 "And they will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."

America is surviving not because of Obama and Obamanation [reminiscent of no-prayer-nor-Bible-reading-in-public-schools/pro-abortion-Roe-v-Wade decisions in 1962 during regime of somewhat-understandably-assassinated axioms-spouting JFK, preceding the give-away-the-Panama-Canal-to-the-Chinese Jimmy Carter's regime and Bill/Hillary Clinton's anti-genuine-Christianity regime]. . . but in spite of them.
