It is his business and his money.

He does not need "an excuse".

I talk to business people all the time that feel the same way.

In fact I am one.

Dear successful businessman,

Keep doing what you are doing. You are successful. Now, if you want to be more successful, well .... grow a pair.

That's beside the point, this is about him hiring. A business owner doesn't have a responsibility to hire, they have a responsibility to make money.

Bingo!!!!


The idiots with no clue, think a business opens its doors to give some poor soul a job.


Waking up and getting a life, is going to be the new past time of the lazy progressive mindset, or starve.

Well, yes. If he's doing well and wants to expand, he'll need to hire more people. My guess is he's bluffing.

Here's another quote from that article (emphasis mine):

What gets difficult in all this is separating things that are actually hurting businesses from things that Republican-leaning business owners, for reasons of ideology or personal self-interest, simply don't like. And because there's virtually no data on this question, there's really no way to tell the two apart.

Risk vs reward. The government has increased the risk. The reward is still the same. Therefore, the risks are less appealing.

Obviously business owners take risks, no reason for the government to make the risks even worse.

I can tell you have never ran a business.

It take a big "pair" just to make the first investment.

But, the rewards is NOT still the same.....

The costs of everything has gone up.

Yeah, if anything, the reward is less and the risk is higher.
