Crawfish; Apparently you are smoking something that Ricky Williams will want. You know I make a profit of over $200,000 a year with our family owned business. I will now have to pay more taxes with Mr. Kerry's plan. I will then invest in my community by employing nearly 100 people. That means probably about 400 mouths to feed. I will have to re-invest in my company so that I can stay ahead of my competition. Pay all of the expenses with no government assistance. Then when my parents pass away the government will thank us by giving me the thrill of paying 50% of the companies estimated value in estate taxes. Then if I cannot come up with the money I will have to sell the company to satisfy the debt. Those 100 people that have worked here for all of their lives will no longer have jobs. The money I invest in the community will be gone. Then my customers will have to go to some god forsaken foreign country to purchase product from them where it will take 16 to 20 weeks to deliver when I have a record shipping everything out of our plant within 20 working days. Yeah that sounds like a great economic plan to me. These big wigs that are CEO's and Chairman of these big companies have no idea of what small family owned business or family owned farms have to go through to make ends meet. They are an owner of a big piece of pie and if they do not distribute profits they don't pay taxes. They very rarely invest back into their community to the extent these family owned smaller companies do. If the government leaves me alone I will turn around as studies show that I will probably increase the number of employees by 70% in 10 years. But if the government puts more restraints on me you can forget it.
I thought surely Rex would be able to answer these two simple questions. I guess he must have gotten busy strokin' his pet goat again.
