If you have no problem with the way you are taxed now it's obvious you are not a buisness owner. Also my parents sent me to school with no help from the government. I think there is a good chance I am older than you.
Yep!
Democrats hate big business, but they also seem to hate small business in the same kind of a way.
Define "little guy" for me so I can get on the same page with you!
Well, I am young so you might laugh at this but I have an example.
I used to work for Burger King. They are a big business. I used to go in there and work for them on short staff-so many customers.
I would get my paycheck to see they shorted my hours. I am already making $5.15 an hour (BEFORE taxes)It would be off by 2 hours or so and I would go to my manager and complain. He would say he would add it back on. They would but come on. Why do they do this in the first place?
Second of all, They gave no raises whatsoever. I worked there for 4 years. I got 2 raises. Ten cents each. I was the hardest worker and most exp (I know the right believes in rewarding hard work) and they just paid my pennies. Not only that but I would sometimes work 8-9 hour shifts and ask for a lunch or a break. Sometimes they allowed it. Sometimes they did not. Mind you, I was underage for a while too. A minor. Even though I was an adult after a while, I do believe I should be able to sit down for 15 minutes if I am working 9 hours! Don't you think? Especially in fast food where I have been standing for such a long time and constantly running from kitchen to microwave to bagging and drive through.
I would go to school from 7 am-3 pm Monday through Friday and work Sat-Sun 12-8. I was VERY hardworking.
MAN OH MAN AM I GLAD THOSE DAYS ARE OVER!
After this exp, it made me despise welfare abusers even more. I went to Target after BK. It was A LOT better but man did I see welfare abuse.
But basically, this is my example. Please dont laugh. This is my experience at the age of 21.
Get real, the majority of voting liberals have generations of welfare families who wont go to work if you took them to work.
Nice try, but we are not going to fall for that one.
Besides, arent you already working without HC as Obama keeps telling us?
GET A JOB and BUY YOUR OWN HC.
It is not my job to buy your HC, food, housing and pay your internet connection.
First of all, I'm working and I do have health-care.
I know it's not your job to buy my HC or internet svc & for your info, I receive benefits through my employer & also take care of my own wireless
connections.
BTW
That's yourself who's probably not working & feeding off my tax contributions.
Your probably one of those recipients who's angry because your welfare time has expired & as Obama mentioned, he suggests people like yourself to go back for higher education.
No need to get upset.
Just follow Obama's steps to help yourself mature to higher levels as you need.

You can't have it both ways. "They gave no raises whatsoever. I worked there for 4 years. I got 2 raises. Ten cents each.
I admit ten cents isn't much but it is a raise.
Flipping burgers is an entry level jpb in many cases. You learn a lot of things, then move up to a better job.
Reading between the lines I'd say you will become more conservative as you grow older. Thing like the amount of taxes taken from you to seeing what those taxes are going for.
More liberals become conservative as they grow older then visa-versa.
When I was in HS I worked as a teller in a bank and saw first hand welfare recipients totally taking advantage. They came to cash their checks weighted down with gold jewelry, dressed better then me and they all walked right past the Help Wanted sign my manager had in the front window. Sorry but most people on welfare do not want to work.

Good luck.
Nope, retired at 40 thanks for Bush and his great small business policies.
Since obamie the commie hates capitalism and small business I am glad I sold the business before he destroyed its value.
You probably are a rare breed of the dem-coms to be supporting yourself.
