Entrepreneurs and Small Business Owners: Spread Your Wealth Around

Barack Hussein Obama wants to tax us so that he can "spread the wealth around" simply because he thinks we are a bunch of silver spoons not looking out for the less advantaged.

Spread my profits around?????  That's more like, "Steal from me and give it to the poor!"

Does this guy now truly believe he is Robin Hood?

There is this little thing about entrepreneurship:  we take HUGE RISKS and forgo the comforts of a stable paycheck and quality health care in search of a better than average reward.

Under Obama's plan of taking more from small business and redistributing our money, there is much less reward.  If there is no reward, why take the risk?

Small business and micro business employ 80% of the American workforce and account for an overwhelming majority of American innovation.  Without profit, small businesses will simply shut down, laying off vast numbers of people and reducing the buying power of every US citizen as a result.  The alternative is to raise prices to cover the increase in taxation; again resulting in inflation, decreased consumer spending and a depressed economy.

I will close my business too if government tries to take more of what I am earning thus making the heartache and frustration of business ownership less attractive than going to work for someone else.  That means I will put several employees out onto the street, they will be jobless and without immediate prospects; I hate to think that some of them might lose their homes because they could no longer afford their mortgages as a result of business ownership becoming less rewarding and more risky to me personally.

Governments drive growth and prosperity by providing incentives to small business so that they thrive, innovate and employ its citizens.  Barack Hussein Obama instead lives in a fairytale world where everyone shares equally in the wealth of Capitalism and a free market economy.  "Spreading the wealth" is simply the pretext under which Democrats are trying to move America towards Socialism, a FAILED THEORY OF GOVERNMENT, because wildly galloping towards the White House on the hopes of the economically disadvantaged is low-hanging fruit.  It's easy mobilizing the sick and tired, especially when they either don't care, are uneducated, unmotivated, cannot and/or do not want to understand the disastrous ramifications of stifling small business in America. 

They are "sheeple" (a hybrid of sheep + people) and easily led over a cliff on the promise of greener pastures that lie just ahead.

Small business owner: if this does not make you angry, then by all means join the sheeple on their long walk off of a short pier.  Just remember that El Scott Harrell told you so when that day comes and you have to look another employee in the eye and tell him or her that you can no longer afford to pay their wages.  I'm sure that he or she will understand exactly how spreading the wealth worked out in their favor.

Good luck with that.
