Obamas' policies cuts the profits of small business; no profit no jobs

Franchisors warn Obamacare will halve profits

The International Franchise Association held a convention in Washington this week where most of the Radio Shack, Dunkin Donuts, Curves and other franchisers were grumbling about new federal regulations, especially the impact of Obamacare.

Most, said Atlanta Taco Bell and Kentucky Fried Chicken franchiser David Barr, presumed that the reports about how hard Obamacare will hit them were overblown. "They had their head in the sand," he told Secrets.

That is until he pulled out his powerpoint showing how funding Obamacare will cut his--and likely their--profits in half overnight.Franchisors warn Obamacare will halve profits | WashingtonExaminer.com

Well, I'll be darned!

Businesses claiming that if X is implemented, they'll all go bankrupt!

We only hear that ... every time every law is passed or even proposed ...

Minimum wage hike?
"We're all doomed!"

OHSA requirement?
"We'll all go out of business!"

Any environmental regulation ever passed?
"Our margins can't handle this!"

They cry wolf every single time. And the next time, there's always someone dumb enough to believe the wolf actually exists ...

Word of the Day: Dhimmitude

Dhimmitude is the Muslim system of controlling non-muslim populations conquered through jihad. Specifically, it is the TAXING of non-muslims in exchange for tolerating their presence AND as a coercive means of converting conquered remnants to islam.

Of course. Obama is toxic for US jobs and the economy. After four years of his failed policies, it is pretty obvious that he is anti-business and bad terrible for the economy.

Trickle up poverty is what Obama is selling the nation.

And we are all now witnessing how well that is working. I asked several times how middle class out works but only got one unrealistic answer.

The real unemployment numbers since Obama took office would tend to affirm that statement. Since Obama doesn't have any new plans other than keep doing the same kinds of things, it's pretty naive to assume that everything will automagically change over the next 4 years.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
