In Honor of Presidents' Day

Have you heard about this billboard? It's in Minnesota and was paid for by a group of small business owners who felt "Washington was against them." 

And the answer?  YES

YES

YES

Yes, I miss him.

And yes, Washington is against small businesses.

Washington has small businesses completely wrong.  Last week Obama stated small businesses weren't growing because they can't get loans to meet payroll.  

Ah-hem.  

I don't own a small business, never have, but I DO know the first checks (after taxes, of course) go to the employees. 

Meet payroll first.

Now, if Obama thinks businesses can't get loans, could it possibly be a result of the new restrictions he's placed on the banks? And even if they have loans and are using them to meet payroll, doesn't that suggest these business are in trouble?  If they need cash to meet payroll, they have bigger probs on the horizon. 

In actuality, small businesses are hedging.  They are waiting.  They don't want to hire and then be forced to downsize after Obama's taxes are approved. Small businesses will see HUGE tax liabilities if Cap and Trade and Health Care come to fruition...not to mention the other income/earnings tax hikes down the pike. 

Our President has no business experience.  He's never run anything in his life...except for this country and he's running it into ruins. Too bad we are the guinea pigs. But yet again, he claims to be all-knowing and out for our best interests, which is ridiculously arrogant.  

So, in honor of Presidents' Day I'm remembering my conservative Presidents and looking forward to a new president in 2012.
