Ndibe ngumgxeki onamandla kaMongameli u-Barack Obama kwezoqoqosho, ukhathalelo lwempilo, kunye nemigaqo-nkqubo yamanye amazwe, kwaye ndicinga ukuba ndiyakuqhubeka ukuba njalo. Ngokuvumelana nobunkokheli beRiphabhlikhi yaseCongress, nangona kunjalo, ukwandisa ukuncitshiswa kwerhafu yengeniso ka-Bush ukuya ku-2011 nango-2012, uMongameli ubonakala ngathi urhoxile kwi-masterstroke yezopolitiko.
UMongameli udibanise ukwandiswa kokucuthwa kwerhafu yengeniso ka Bush kunye nesindululo sakhe sokunciphisa irhafu, oko kukuthi ukuncitshiswa kweholide yonyaka omnye kwinxalenye yomqeshwa werhafu yoKhuseleko lweNtlalo ngeepesenti ezimbini. Ukwandiswa kokucuthwa kwerhafu ka-Bush kuyakukhokelela ekwandeni kokuqeshwa kwamashishini amancinci ngo-2011 nango-2012, kunye nokwehliswa kweRhafu yoKhuseleko lweNtlalo kuya kukhuthaza inkcitho eyongezelelweyo yabathengi ngo-2011. Singalindela ukuba iholide yokhuseleko lweNtlalo iza kwandiswa yiCongress kunye noMongameli ukuya ku-2012.
Ithathiwe kunye, bobabini ukwandiswa kokunciphisa irhafu yengeniso kunye nokuncitshiswa kwerhafu yoKhuseleko lweNtlalo kuya kunceda ekuphuculeni ukubuyiselwa kwezoqoqosho njengoko unyulo lukaMongameli lowama-2012 lusondela. Ngelixa ukungabikho kwemisebenzi kusaza kuhlala kungaphezulu kwe-8%, amajelo eendaba aphambili aya kugxila kunciphiso olungaphantsi kwe-9% kwaye anike u-Obama ikhredithi. Ngelishwa, ngokuvuma ukonyusa isaphulelo sika-Bush awasichasayo njengomgqatswa ngo-2008, uMongameli angangena ngo-2012 njengoyena mntu amthandayo ukuphinda akhethwe kwakhona.
Kude kube ngoku, u-Obama ebesilele ngendlela engathethekiyo ekunciphiseni ukungabikho kwemisebenzi kunye nokwandisa ukukhula kwemisebenzi. Ingxelo yemisebenzi yeveki ephelileyo ibonise ukwanda kokungabikho kwemisebenzi ukuya kwi-9.8%, inyanga ye-19 ethe ngqo ngokungabikho kwemisebenzi ngaphezulu kweepesenti ze-9. Ireyithi yonyuso lweMveliso yaseKhaya yonyaka ukusukela ukuphela kokuphela koqoqosho ngoJuni, 2009 ibiyi-anemic 2.8%. Inkqubo kaMongameli evuselelweyo ayikhuthazanga nto ngaphandle kwentsilelo kunye namatyala esizwe.
Esona sizathu siphambili sokusilela kuka-Obama kwimisebenzi kukulindelwa ngabanini bamashishini abancinci kokonyuka kwerhafu enkulu kwimbali yaseMelika ngo-2011. Olu konyuka beluya kwenzeka ukuba ukuncitshiswa kwerhafu yaseBush kuphelelwe lixesha njengoko bekucwangcisiwe ngo-Disemba 31, 2010. Ukujongana nokonyuka kwirhafu, abanini bamashishini abancinci kumashishini eSubchapter S kunye namashishini angadibaniswanga akuthandanga ukunyusa ingqesho. Amashishini amancinci ngokwembali ibisoloko iyinjini yokudala amathuba emisebenzi, kwaye imigaqo-nkqubo yezoqoqosho ka-Obama yayiphose isikrweqe senkawu kule injini.
Ngokwandiswa kokucuthwa kwerhafu ka Bush, isithintelo esikhulu ekudalweni kwamashishini amancinci sisusiwe. Ezinye izithintelo ezenziwe ngu-Obama zihlala, ikakhulu i-ObamaCare. Ngapha koko, umgaqo-nkqubo wezemali olula wokumiliselwa ophunyezwe nguSihlalo weBhodi ye-Federal Reserve u-Ben Bernanke kwaye uxhaswe ngu-Obama uya kuthi ngokuqinisekileyo akhokelele ekumisweni kwemali kwikota yesibini ka-Obama.
Nangona kunjalo, ngexesha elifutshane lezopolitiko, akukho mathandabuzo ukuba izivumelwano zika-Obama namaRiphabhlikhi kwirhafu ziye zasiqinisa kakhulu isikhundla sakhe. Ukongeza kuncitshiso lwerhafu lwe-Bush oluvelisa ukudalwa kwemisebenzi emincinci, irhafu yoKhuseleko lwezeNtlalontle ka-Obama iya kuvelisa ukhuthazo lokwenyani loqoqosho ngu umsebenzisi inkcitho, ngokuchaseneyo neenzame zokukhupha isisu zikaMongameli zokukhuthaza uqoqosho urhulumente inkcitho.
Ngokujonga ukuphuculwa okubonakalayo kwamathemba ezopolitiko kaMongameli, iyandimangalisa indlela iiDemokhrasi ezikhululekileyo zasekhohlo kwiCongress naphakathi kweenkululeko ezikhuthaza uMongameli ekufikeleleni kwisivumelwano ngerhafu kunye nobunkokheli beRiphabhlikhi yaseCongress. Bayayihoya kwaphela into yokuba uphumelele isivumelwano seRiphabhlikhi sokwandisa izibonelelo zokungaqeshwa.
Nangona kunjalo oku kugwetywa ngu-Obama ngabasekhohlo benkululeko abaDemokhrasi kukwayimeko yezopolitiko kaMongameli. Kumenza abukeke njenge centrist Democrat, nto leyo engeyiyo kwaphela. Ukuba iidemokhrasi zasekhohlo zenkululeko ziqhuba umgqatswa woNyulo lukaMongameli ngokuchasene no-Obama kwiziphathamandla zeDemokhrasi (umz.Howard Dean), ngokuqinisekileyo u-Obama uya kuphumelela. Oku kuyakumnika i-aura yoloyiso kwaye kuphuculwe ngakumbi iinzame zakhe zokuzibonakalisa njengekhulu.
Enyanisweni, iiDemokhrasi ezisekhohlo ezisekhohlo zihamba phambili kwiidemokhrasi ze-Liberal yintoni i-Tea Party Republican i-center-right Republican. Kukho umahluko omnye phakathi kweedemokhrasi zasekhohlo kunye neTe Party Party, nangona kunjalo. I-Tea Party yamaRiphabhlikhi eneneni ayithinteli.
Ukuba iiDemokhrasi zifuna umzekelo wento eyenzekayo kwiGosa eliyiNtloko leqela labo, federal okanye urhulumente, ongayikhathaleliyo inyani yezopolitiko, akufuneki bajonge ngaphezulu komzekelo werhuluneli yaseNew Jersey uJim Florio kwi1992, xa iNdibano yeRiphabhlikhi kunye neNdlu yeeNgwevu Igqithile kwi-veto yakhe yokunciphisa irhafu yokuthengisa ukusuka kwi-7% ukuya kwi-6%.
Ndiyamthanda uJim Florio, kwaye ndiyakholelwa ukuba ababhali-mbali bexesha elizayo baya kuligweba ixesha lakhe lokuba yirhuluneli. Sele efumene into eyonyukayo phakathi kweNew Jerseyans kwiipolitiki zamva nje.
Ngo-1992, nangona kunjalo, uFlorio wayekwimo ebuthathaka kakhulu kwezopolitiko ngenxa yomthetho wonyuso wengeniso kunye neerhafu zentengiso kwiminyaka emibini yokuqala yekota yakhe. AbaseRiphabhlikhi babefumene ubukhulu be-veto-proof kwiNdibano nakwiNdlu yeeNgwevu kunyulo luka-1991, kwaye babemanyene ngokupheleleyo emva kwesindululo sobunkokheli babo sokubuyisela umva irhafu yentengiso kaFlorio ukusuka kwi-7% ukuya kwi-6%.
Kwaye kwagqitywa kwangaphambili ukuba indlu yowiso-mthetho elawulwa yiRiphabhlikhi iya kugqithisa i-veto yaseFlorio yomibini irhafu yokuthengisa kunye ne-GOP $ 1 yezigidigidi ekunciphiseni uhlahlo-lwabiwo mali lwe-FY 1993. Ukanti wakhetha ukuvotela la manyathelo omabini, esazi ukuba ii-veto zakhe ziya kubhalwa ngaphezulu.
Ndasebenza kwiNdibano kwiRiphabliki yabasebenzi boSomlomo ngelo xesha uGarabed Chuck Haytaian ngelo xesha. U-Chuck uhlala egcina ukuba ukuba uFlorio ebevumile ukubuyela kwirhafu yokuthengisa, ebeya kuphinda akhethwe kwakhona ngo-1993. Ndivumelana ngokupheleleyo nolo vavanyo. Njengokuba kunjalo, waphulukana noChristie Whitman ngo-1993, umgqatswa wobunjani beenkwenkwezi, ngamavoti angama-26,000, umda wepesenti enye.
Ngokungafaniyo noJim Florio, andikholelwa ukuba ulawulo lukaBarack Obama luza kufumana uvavanyo oluhle kubabhali-mbali bexesha elizayo, ubuncinci ngokusekwe kwirekhodi lakhe ukuza kuthi ga ngoku. Kwakhona ngokungafaniyo noJim Florio, nangona kunjalo, umbono omkhulu ka-Barack Obama werhafu yezopolitiko unokubangela ukuba abuyele kwakhona kwi-2012.
