Those who do not work, live on passive investments, and think workers are lazy favor Romney.

(18,791 posts)We own a "small" business...1 retail location...1 non-retail/production location...and 4 employees.
Trust me...WE are a REALLY small business. Mittens does NOT give a crap about us.
This whole "small" business thing is bullshit. Any time the Repukes talk to "small" business owners, they usually have
50 or more employees...THAT is no small business.
And for those owners, that are making $250,000 NET income and are NOT incorporated (hell, even we are incorporated) are idiots. ONLY an idiot, that owns a business AND makes that much income for themselves...are idiots for not letting the corporation get taxed vs. paying taxes on all that income themselves (all that Bagger Blather about too many rules, too many regulations and too many taxes).
SUCH bullshit...and it makes our blood boil.
We will NEVER support Mittens or the Repukes.
Go Prez O!
