Where I work is a small business, and we just got new owners last spring. I'm sure the cuts will help them alot, as they've had to put a bunch of money in- mostly upgrading computers and software.

I'm sure that it will help them. If I'm not mistaken, there are some tax breaks specifically aimed at computer purchases. You bring up another point. People that rant against business often forget that the owners have invested a lot of time and money into those businesses. They risk a lot and sometimes fail a few times before they get it right. The picture painted by the "corporation bashers" is a guy working slaves and living on easy street. Also, the idea of companies not paying taxes is nonsense. Taxes are paid by the employees - which include the executives - when a paycheck is taken.
