"how jobs were being choked out by this administration"
nothing but Repug talking point, aka, LIE
taxes were MUCH HIGHER in the 1990s while the Clinton economy produced 300k+ jobs per month. Taxes much higher in the 1950s when the US real wealth (not debt-financed) exploded. Now, GFY.
True, a toxin is a type of pollutant. The EPA didn't deem it a poison. However:

I wonder how many of our jobs went overseas because CEO's decided not to worry about CO2 regulation likely coming?
I think a few thing he said are key:Quote:

IBD: If you could sit down with Obama and talk to him about job creation, what would you say?
Marcus: I'm not sure Obama would understand anything that I'd say...

IBD: Why don't more businesses speak out?
Marcus: They are frightened to death — frightened that they will have the IRS or SEC on them. In my 50 years in business, I have never seen executives of major companies who were more intimidated by an administration.
Do you think Bernie might have a political agenda?Quote:

I like the way you guys completely disregard what Warren Buffet has to say,but it's gospel when the guy is cheering for your team.
Do Regulations Really Kill Jobs Overall? Not So Much

of course, the CEO of Home Depot would tell any lie to hype the "regulation scare" like bubba Congressmen and state politicains hype the "sharia and communist scares".
Shouldn't surprise you. You're talking to team players.Quote:

"should be shot; should be thrown out of their goddamn jobs."
Your spin is effectively a lie.
What are you talking about? the guy is a shill for the GOP so I am not surprised at all that he's on board with their new job killing regulation mantra.Quote:

My advice; start your own business. See how that works for you. Pay the fed taxes, the state taxes, the bills, the employees, the equipment, the raw material. Then, pay your own personal income taxes. Depending on the status of your incorporated business, let me know how fucking charitable you feel when every dollar your company makes is your personal income which you also have to pay taxes on.
People are running out of excuses for their lot in life. I find the difference between me and Joe Blow is, I work day and night, 7 days a week. I took a "vacation" this week for the first time in 4 years (my wedding was 4 years ago)...and I am posting this from my desk at work. Thats the third day in a row of my scheduled vacation that I have spent at work.
Motherfuckers arent dedicated. People dont want to work, period. They want a 9-5, maybe one Saturday a month if they feel like kissing the boss' ass, and think theyre busting thier balls at work. You aint doing shit, part-timer. Youre a full-time hobbyist with a part-time job.
If youre between the ages of 20 and 40 and work isnt your very first priority, before family, before health, before fun, before vacation, youre lazy.
My tolerance level for people in the prime of their life whining about this or that in relation to money/time/taxes/etc wore thin years ago. Because, IMO, unless the person speaking is on par with my level of dedication, its all pops and buzzes. Like adults in Charlie Brown...wa wa wa wa waaaa.
Ummm.......I think Obama is pro-small business, but I digress....
You sound like you need some time off DR...life isn't about pocketing change...
Thank God I'm over 40.Quote:
