The US Is Killing Its Entrepreneurs....

Quote from JoePaterno:

I actually read the link a couple of times. It makes quite a few arguments and then throws up some weak defenses.

"Reinstate the death tax and now small businesses will have to buy life insurance"? Ignoring the hype, this makes little sense. Perhaps it would be BETTER to tax inheritances rather than income. And since when is it smart to not have life insurance for your dependents, depending on the 'inheritance'?

I am pro small business and conservative, but the article is more hype and pomp than solidly researched fact.

Most of the current problem is being caused by irresponsible regulations that allowed the financial crisis to leverage financial institutions so highly and be so fragile, supported by bonus-time leaders who kept throwing the dice and hoping things would be fine. And of course, allowing anyone and everyone to buy homes they could not afford. And somehow thinking that international free trade means "let everyone else export to the USA simply because they do not have the wages or worker/environment protections we require." And unfettered inflation in the healthcare and colleges. And tens of billions in govt obligations to govt worker pensions, medicare, social security, Etc. Etc. Etc.

We have seen the enemy and he is us.

......................................................................

The economic war is waged on many fronts. First, let's have a lesson in Taxation 101 for the leaders in political Disneyland. Back in 1986, we had a monster makeover change in the tax code, and one big change effectively encouraged millions of small- and medium-sized businesses to file as Subchapter S corporations, which means the business' income is reported on the individual owner's tax return as personal income. But here comes the zinger, you political Musketeers: That income isn't really the same as our personal income.

Most of us have banking partners who expect to be paid first out of the personal income. Many small- and medium- business owners, like me, actually have significant banking restrictions on our ability to pay ourselves. So when you Musketeers talk about raising taxes on the rich making more than $250,000, you are raising taxes directly on millions of businesses. And yes, that mantra you recite about us creating three-fourths of new jobs is true.

The tax take would be pronouced on the very segment that is direly needed....

What does IDIOCY mean ?????

How about needing something that you reject ?????

What is the hype about the clear reduction of revenue ?????

This is elementary....but you are not alone.....All of the politcos think like you....basic math is not part of their thought process....

...........................................................

In simple think.....

A govt. wants to grow its businesses....and create economic sustainability ......

The unit needed has income and debt....

The govt. solution.....decrease the income per unit while increasing its debt....

Which direction does this point the economy.....???????

Welcome to HARVARD.....where basic math skills do not exist....
 
Quote from Thunderdog:

The Washington Times? Do you mean the daily founded in 1982 by Unification Church founder Sun Myung Moon and subsidized by the Unification Church community? The same Moon who, in 2002, said that he is the Messiah and the Second Coming of Christ and is fulfilling Jesus' unfinished mission? Who said "The Washington Times is responsible to let the American people know about God," and "The Washington Times will become the instrument in spreading the truth about God to the world."

Is that the newspaper to which you refer?

It does not matter if a monkey delivers the message....as long as it is correct....

Of course the report would have to be from a Harvard Grad to be a correct one....

Nope. Not in our wildest dreams is this true.
Letting businesses grow and creating economic sustainability would mean giving up control.
Ain't gonna happen in our lifetimes.

The message that Sun Myung Moon is the Messiah and the Second Coming of Christ, and that he is fulfilling Jesus's unfinished mission through The Washington Times? That message?

The US gets more third world every day it seems....

Pretty soon they will be handing out 10lb bags of food for votes....
 
these figures are completely meaningless without a definition of self employed. In the US it is very easy to form a corporation. by some definitions if you are an employed by a corporation you can never be considered to be self employed. this is ridiculous if you own the co.

my guess is these #s were fudged by a liberal think tank to reach their desired conclusions.
