You can't dialogue with a business community that's gone over to the Democrats ~ you can only cancel their fire insurance and that sort of thing.
And we spend all of our political capitol trying to get these people tax breaks.
“Business people have been their own worst enemies for decades.”
Big Business by voting for regulations votes to decreae competition. However, sooner or later they find their own enterprises impossible to maintain.

Tyranny of the unelected

The bit that caught my eye was:
“The year’s Federal Register - the daily depository of federal regulations - already tops 61,000 pages. According to research conducted for the Small Business Administration by economists Nicole V. and W. Mark Crain, annual off-budget regulatory costs exceed $1.7 trillion, an amount equivalent to more than half the level of the federal budget itself and on a par with the stratospheric annual deficit.
So much for the constitutional injunction, “All legislative Powers ... shall be vested in a Congress of the United States.” The unelected rule America; welcome to “regulation without representation.”

The small business guys struck back:

Associated Press: Business group has endorsed Haley
The local political branch of a national business group has endorsed South Carolina Republican gubernatorial nominee Nikki Haley. The political action committee of South Carolinas chapter of the National Federation of Independent Business endorsed Haley on Wednesday at news conferences in Greenville, Columbia and Florence.
The regulatory burden has grown steadily and is stifling growth.
Welcome. It’s not going to be enough to reduce expenditures to get on our feet. We’ve got to stop the regulators. We’ll survive and eventually thrive if we can use all our resources — especially our property — which fed state and local governments are over-regulating.
I wish these lefty schmucks would get their talking points in order. I thought the Tea Party was nothing but a puppet for big corporations! Which is it?
Some big business likes big government with its big regulations that raise big barriers to new competitors. It’s easier to be successful when nobody is allowed to compete with you.
We need to break down the “business - government” partnership. It is nothing but a facade for graft and corruption.

That has become painfully obvious in the last 10 years or so.
I have yet to meet a single business person who is not extremely frustrated with the Democrats and the Obama administration. I have yet to meet a single business person who doesn't feel the Obama administration has been a disaster for this country.
When Reagan was president the MSM would try to find business people and conservatives to say he was doing a bad job. They would do article after article about how business people were apposed to Reagan and wanted Mondale and the Democrats to win. Expect more of this propaganda, especially if the Republicans win in November.
All the insiders are scared, and they should be. Time to clean house.
Nikki Haley Ping

I really don't like Bloomberg.
Bloomberg/Businessweak presumes to speak for "business". B.S. They get business and the Tea Party movement all wrong while attempting to distort its message, theme and image by using intentionally bad (by distorting) visual images of Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck (to give the impression that this is a "right-wing Christian Taliban" movement).
Their biased liberal drivel is on full display to any discerning business person.
The fact remains that the SC Chamber of commerce endorsed a Democratic Trial Lawyer over Nikki Haley.
Small businesses struck back.

South Carolina is a very corrupt state. No doubt many of these businesses like to bribe corrupt Republicans and Democrats go without saying.
