For Those Who Own A Business or Their Family Own's One

[HandsOffItsMine]

Our small business is being raked over the coals. Unfortunately, everything that the present administration has put into play will never be revoked. They have gotten their claws into small businesses never to be released. Another way to grab money, why let go.

Same here, when he came into office. After 8 years in business - I had seven employees, two full-time for whom I paid health insurance - the PTs could buy their own if they had no coverage. The economy was already doing poorly, instead of concentrating about the economy/jobs, he went after Healthcare. Clients couldn't renew their contracts as they were losing their customers, slowly no more PT staff. Sadly FT staff had to go to PT, told them to look for jobs as contracts lengths became shorter or just by the job/order. After three years (a total of 11 years of hard work) it became me, myself and I again. As well as many of my clients and other peers, competitors, businesses in the community. Now we have a Healthcare program, no jobs, employers who will cut more jobs as they have no profit margins as they have been cutting for the last four years. What more can a small business owner cut. Or for that matter, middle class families!?! We've cut all we've can and yet with this drought we'll be looking at higher prices for groceries, along with upcoming winter fuel cost...we'll all have to tighten the belt some more.

His statement of "You didn't build your business!" was just the last drop that did me in take a stand for all small business owners, especially small business women ownerships.
