Last year I pulled of my money out of banks, with the exception of what I need to run my business.

Put my two ex-employees on 1099 status.

That was their choice. They said Obama would give them heath care. So, I told them I would pay $1 more per hour on their check.

They LOVED it, then.

I love not having to deal with unemployment. Now they don't get it and have no insurance.

They don't like Obama as much.

Have you changed anything because of the health care bill??

I've changed my mind about the effectiveness of our educational system.

I dropped all my insurance, because Obama will take care of me.

I've changed my views of the American democratic process and whether the US is still the best country in the world. I might retire elsewhere.

First off that is so cliché it's ridiculous. IF TRUE, your employees are incredibly stupid (and I wonder why would you hire them??) then it was THEY who made a change, not you. You just benefited from their decision.

Sorry, no. I run my business. They changed NOTHING. They have no investment. They shot off their mouths and I took them at their word.

BTW, it doesn't take a guinness to shovel mud at $15 an hour.

I wonder how many of the complainers had a problem with spending a trillion dollars on the Iraq War.
