Hey Obama! Here's a Comment from a Real Small Businessman

Posted by Stefano on Monday, October 06, 2008 1:12:54 AM
Here's a great reader comment from the Michelle  Malkin website that gives a rubber meets the road perspective on Obama's misguided tax increase on small businessmen and women:      http://michellemalkin.com/2008/10/03/comic-relief-joe-depot/

I’m one of the wealthy (just almost at 250) who the commies are targeting. I have a small business. Most of what I make goes back into the business to create jobs and to buy goods that in turn support other businesses. Its called the American dream.We small business men and women fuel Americas economy, not politician leeches. I created 10 jobs and keep 50 consultants busy with my little shop, and I didn’t have to organize one community to make it happen. I took my own capital - no loans - and went from nothing three years ago.

Some turd said I should be happy to have 40 percent left rather than the 55 percent. That 15 percent I’m losing is someone’s job. If not an employee then the guy who wants to build an American car for me to buy, or the guy who I’ll hire to work on my house since I’m getting older, Another person on welfare instead of an entry level position. Another tax taker instead of a tax payer.

I worked my *ss off for 40 years in some good jobs and bad jobs to get to the point where I could own my own business and make some money. Now, Obama says I’m too rich, Biden says I’m not patriotic, and they want to steal my money.

If any democrat had an iota of understanding basic economics, they would get their roads built, their hospitals funded, and their public safety and military funded if they stay the hell out of our way.
 
What this small businessman doesn't understand is that Barack Obama will use his money in a more fair way, that will help someone who deserves the money more than the businessman does.  As far as the person who will lose his job, he can get one of those millions of wonderful green jobs that Barack Obama is going to create.  Barack Obama believes deep in his heart that the government knows how to spend the money of Americans better than the people who earn it.  The government also knows how to spend the money of Americans that they have yet to earn.
