The discussion must be about net, not gross. Otherwise, the higher tax rates would not apply. The net is his profit that he can invest. BHO wants to confiscate his profits limiting his ability to expand his business. This scenario will be played over and over again. Even if this business owner does not want to use his profits to invest in his own business, he could use his profits to invest in other businesses.
I don’t think Obambi knows the difference between gross, net, a sub chapter S or a McDonald’s Filet’OFish.
