I ran across this last night. Interesting to see how he is away from his life in harness. After watching this it reinforces my positive opinion of the man.

Big difference between the guy making $250k-$350k and what Gural is making!! The small biz owner making $250k with several employees (like the company I work for) will be much more heavily affected by this than Mr. Gural.  Higher taxes will equal hiring freezes where I work.

Are you referring to profit or sales?

If I was making 250k profit, I would be hiring more people to try to expand my business or buying more equipment in the next 4 years and reap the benefits when the next president comes in and makes similar tax cuts to Bush.

President Reagan fell for that deal. He agreed to a deal to allow a tax increase to go along with spending cuts... the cuts never came. (in DC speak a cut is never a cut, it's a reduction in rate of growth)

He wised up and engineered a major tax rate cut and the actual number of dollars to the treasury nearly doubled. JFK preached the same thing when I was a kid.

Somewhere in Kenya a village is missing it's idiot.
