In Ohio we have an income tax, nearly the same sales tax, and taxes and fees on everything imaginable and something like the 3rd highest business tax in the nation and one of the highest in the world. If you’re a business, would you want to come here?

Allen County [Ohio] commissioners want to increase taxes, which is upsetting a lot of people. When things are bad, the first thing politicians do is make them worse for those who are working. The other day, a guy came to my home and asked to do yard work. I was just on my way out to buy new hedge trimmers, and decided to give him the money instead. He did a good job, and I felt so bad for him. I had been in his position a time or two, but it's worse now, because it's lingering and getting worse with each day democrats are in office. Now is the time to speak out against Obama and Pelosi's gang, and while we are at it, those of us who can afford to, let some laid off worker mow the lawn, or something. This is a good time to help each other, because the government sure isn't doing a good job of it.

Good point, but there's a big part of me that would be itching to ask how they vote, first. Cynical, I know, but I'm sick of playing nice with people who help destroy this country. Do stupid things, like vote for socialists, and learn your lesson the hard way. (see my tag)
