There is no such thing as a “business tax”.

 
   Yet another perfect example of ‘political misdirection’, if you are feeling charitable, liberal lies if not. Government taxes banks, and user fees go up. The “business tax” is always passed directly to consumers as a price increase or fee. Obviously this means there no such thing as a “business tax”, and never has been.

    As the cost of doing business goes up so does the price of the good or service sold to compensate. Look at your own life as an example. Many of us are selling items on craigslist or ebay. If item A cost you $5 and you can ship it for free, you'll charge $6 to make selling worthwhile. If shipping is $5 you'll now charge $11. The price got passed directly to the consumer.

Politicians can only run the taxes, and consequently prices, up to the point where the business or industry is no longer competitive. If the buyer says Item A is only worth $8 and you need $5 to buy another A and $5 to ship it, you won't sell any more item A. Taxes are always a burden on the economy. They should be viewed as a necessary evil for this reason, and be as limited as feasible.

At that point either the business attempts to reduce cost, for example jobs moving offshore, or the company goes out of business because we consumers can no longer afford the product. The buyer will have to look for something else or do without. The workers will become unemployed.

Everyone loses except the politicians who get reelected on anti business platforms. Americans lose jobs, choice, and standard of living.

Did you vote for Barack Obama? Feeling embarrassed?

Klavan vs left wing media.

Andrew Klavan, why do blacks vote for democrats?

I've got a better question, why does anyone vote for democrats?

Why you should never trust polls.

The survey of 925 registered voters had a margin of error of 3%; the Republican sub-sample of 363 voters had a margin of error of 5%. It was conducted jointly by Democratic pollster Anderson Robbins Research and Republican pollster Shaw & Co. Research.” Only 39% of the sample were republicans. Were the other 61% democrats, making this a heavily left biased poll? Was it split 39% republican, 10% independent, 51% democrats, still making it much more left biased than the national average? The combinations are endless, and the sample size so relatively small as to be almost meaningless. And yet these numbers are quoted as fact and representative of the nation.

Obama campaigns, his only talent.

“By the end of the day Monday, Obama will have attended at least nine fundraisers and political events since delivering his jobs plan overview to Congress Sept. 8” So Obama spends a whole 55% of his days being president rather than campaigning? Well, if you don’t add in golf, and speeches, and vacations, and dinner events. I think the average American spends more time brushing their teeth in a day than Barack does making a serious attempt at being president. With his abysmal track record that may be for the best.
 
‘Obama pressed Republicans to help pass his latest economic plan, saying it's a choice between his approach or the nation going back to the "same ideas the other side is peddling -- old, worn-out ideas from last decade" ‘You mean last decade when 40% of the population wasn’t looking for a job, and when our 401Ks went up over time and meant something? I think I’ll take last decade over the failure in chief please.
 
“After pitching a $447 billion jobs bill, he proposed paying for it with tax increases.” Tax and spend in a recession. There’s some fresh, new, genius, Obama thinking for you.

Democrats don’t believe in democracy.

Those voters are just such a nuisance for democrats. Always demanding their representatives have accountability to and actually serve the public. If we could just get rid of this democracy thing. This is yet another outrage from the left. Perdue should be recalled immediately for even thinking about disenfranchising the voters.

Tax and spend Obama never learns.

"Paying for another stimulus on the backs of job creators in the form of tax hikes is illogical," Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., said in a statement.  Asked about what might happen to a conciliatory approach to the bill, one GOP aide told Fox News: "Nothing kills bipartisanship faster than a half-trillion [dollar] tax hike." ‘

Poverty in U.S. Climbs to 17-Year High in 2010, Income Fell

Obama has officially become the worst president in our children’s lifetime. As the 2011 numbers are counted, and considering his continued tax, spend, and attack American business mantra, he’s likely to become the worst president in our lifetime also.

Diversity or discrimination?

Obama has made a concerted effort to nominate minorities rather than Caucasians. Wait… what’s the definition of discrimination? “treatment or consideration of, or making a distinction in favor of or against, a person or thing based on the group, class, or category to which that person or thing belongs rather than on individual merit” Ooops.
