I ain’t rich...but so far, I have laid off two guys from a small business, fired a gardener and his two helpers, a pool guy, cut up many credit cards, dropped AARP like a hot rock, moved my insurance, gone to a cash basis in both personal and business matters wherever possible and no longer subscribe to any lefty newspapers. So to recap, as more of us do this, the unemployment will grow.
What does this dumb POS think I will do, sell my house and car to keep employing people? As the cuts keep coming, who does this ahole think is going to suffer more, me or them?
And why do they always refer to “the rich” as if it is some permanent condition?
I and many people I know who own businesses have had up and down years, lean times and now hard times. Screw this idiot and all of his lefty buddies who think taxing is the way out. The dumbest SOB on the planet can see this coming.
Print more money, keep paying off your layabout constituency and bring back the good old days of Carter economics. I won’t give a shite by then; I’ll be out of it and I will have helped cause it OUT OF CHOICE.
BRAVO SIR. I am very much like you.
With midget man working with tenure for UC Berkeley, he will never have to worry about a non-elitist paycheck, ever
I've cancelled the yard service, the tree service, the bug guy, the contract to put the pool in the backyard, cut up all the credit cards but one, reduced my insurance coverages, started going to Wal-mart instead of pricier grocery stores, I travel by air once per year instead 6 or 7 times, budget just one ski trip instead of 3 or 4, eat out maybe once every two weeks instead of 3 times per week and so on.
And that's just because I'm trying to rebuild wealth that was lost when the various crashes occurred. I'd guess there's at least a couple of folks working less, or out of work, just from the difference in what I was spending then compared to now.
Maybe some tax cuts...real ones...and I don't mean just continuing those we have today, might let us spend more so that more people can have jobs. Whatever happened to the idea of putting money into the people's pockets -- the people who can then afford to spend it, not just subsist on the welfare from the Great Black Father.
I'll be with you helping to cause it...partially from choice but mostly in response to what these evil bastards have done and are doing.
