Ross Murty, the co-owner of the Village Corner Deli in Davenport, is a proud small-business owner who isnt afraid to speak his mind.
Serving up pulled pork, beans and cheesy potatoes for the press at the presidents campaign event this evening, Murty wore a T-shirt that said, Government Didnt Build my Business, I Did.
The shirt is a reference to a comment Obama made last month. While discussing the importance of government investments in public services, the president said, If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help.
Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If youve got a business you didnt build that. Somebody else made that happen.

The hazards of reading quickly: I thought the headline said “Carter” instead of “Caterer.” Now that would have been newsworthy!
Government Didnt Build my Business, I Did.
Typical conservative idiot.
I would have LOVED to see this guy build his business without any loans, education, or tax breaks (all paid for by the taxpayers).
So again, YOU didnt build your business, WE did.
That guy is my new hero lol
No pics = It didn’t happen.
We didn’t prove you are an idiot. You did that for yourself.
They will not read this part: ""Here's a comment from the bottom of the page..""", meaning the articles comment section.
Hope this helps. I was a little miffed myself, until I clicked on the article.
IBTZ?
reading comprehension can be your friend.
Thank you for your thoughtful response.
Ignore the naysayers. I understood your comment, and totally agree with your reason for posting it.
I would love to respond to the idiocy - but I have learned not to bother. My response would have been along the lines of: I never took a loan for my business, I was educated in private schools, and never got any ta breaks - what’s your reason for living on the public dole?
Any other event fine.
Most of those ‘government loans’ go to the people who fail at business. They’re the folks who specialize in getting loans - not in doing business.

So sorry to have offended some of you casual readers. To the posters who comprehended my post, thank you for your intelligence.
(John at this time will sign off to attend to more productive activities.)
“WE DID” ???
The liberal mindset. Can’t argue with them. Wrestling, pigs, mud, yadda, yadda.
What I’d like to know is how are they going to encourage productivity when they remove any motivation?
The media is putting together the pogrom list.
Davenport is just up the road from me. I can eat lunch there and supper at the Chic Fil A!
