Couldnt agree more pontooner--when everybody figures out the middle class drive this economy and not the wealthy the economy will turn around

i am a small business owner and let me tell you if a 3-4% tax increase forces you to have to fire employees than your business is not in a healthy position to start with--hiring or laying off employees is a decision you make based on consumption of your product and overall health of your business not taxes

mr.crowley is probably making several million a year based on taxes or should i say if hes runnin an efficient business hes making several million a year--and hes talking about firing employees is his taxes are raised a few percent

he wont fire anybody because he knows less employees will hurt his busineeses productivity and profitability

sounds like an attempt to scare folks into voting for him to keep his already low tax rates

sorry for the long post--headin down to ky lake tommorow for 10 days so excited i wont be able to sleep tonight
