Bigun! I guess the business I work for now isn't making money, because they not paying me enough to start a business! I am in martinsville! The states highest unemployment! Our local government is as bad as the national government.
The business I work for just received 600,000$, and for the last 4 years have received that much. The money was giving to expand the business and hire more employees. And in them 4 years they have built a test building and hired 10 employees! 2 million for 10 employees! Where the hell did the money go! President riding a personal jet, back and forth to our customers! Which is one customer! It is his business so he can do what he wants, while I wonder how I'm getting back and forth to work!

Whole different world between big business and small business. Big business gets all the tax breaks, tax credits and all the loop holes. I can only speak for myself, small business is more like family atmosphere. Ball games, birthday parties. and a whole lot of tears shed through sickness and death. I have no doubt that there is nothing that my employees, if it be in there power, wouldn't do for me. Wouldn't have it any other way. If you have good people, you had better take care of them. For one thing hard to replace good folks now days. Another, they are way smarter than me. ;D Seems like when there is a disagreement on here I am squarely right in the middle of it. I have come to the conclusion, that I may be a little to over the top for some folks on this site. Maybe what even keeps a lot of the new guys from posting and joining in. Definitely don't mean to come across that way. Really great site with awesome folks. Decided I'll pull back a whole lot on my posting for a while and just post fishing reports when I go, which doesn't seem to be often anymore. I'll still be checking in to see if everyone is behaving.....

Tyler and Bigun, if President Obama is re-elected you two can come to work for me; I am going to start taking Ford Fiestas and Chevy Chevettes and installing solar panels on the roof and a wind mills on the trunk (like a big spoiler). I figure I can get a grant for $10,000,000 just for start up, then I'll take advantage of some of the "new hire" money, I should be able to get another $2,000,000 for that. I think we'll have it made right up to the time we have to bankrupt.

Bigun, my new plant manager (BigJon) will be the one making that decision, so, it's not looking real good for you.

Gotcha, please notice that I said "IF" Obama is re-elected. Now, the reason that I'm going to hire Bigjon is because I can receive more money for hiring handicapped workers, as a matter of fact, they'll probably double the rate. New thought, forget the car conversions, let's convert short buses to solar/wind power. We'll put together a test crew, Bigjon, SS and 391V. I want ya'll to think about one; You've all seen the way Bigjon acts, do you think it's an accident that they gave him a job working around high voltage lines? ??

Huh, I always wondered if an accident with high voltage lines is what caused Bigjon to act that way. I thought he got zapped one to many times.

Ok, I know I said I would be good, after this one, I promise!!!! The folks who are getting the free stuff, don't like the folks who are paying for the free stuff, Because the folks who are paying for the free stuff, Can no longer afford to pay for both the free stuff and their own stuff, And, The folks who are paying for the free stuff, Want the free stuff to stop. and the the folks who are getting the free stuff, Want even more free stuff on top of the free stuff they are already getting! Now... The people who are forcing the people who Pay for the free stuff, Have told the people who are RECEIVING the free stuff, That the people who are PAYING for the free stuff, Are being mean, prejudiced, and racist. So... the people who are GETTING the free stuff, Have been convinced they need to hate the people who are paying for the free stuff, By the people who are forcing some people to pay for their free stuff, And giving them the free stuff in the first place. We have let the free stuff giving go on for so long that there are Now more people getting free stuff than paying for the free stuff. Now understand this. All great democracies have committed financial suicide somewhere between 200 and 250 years after being founded. The reason ? The voters figured out they could vote themselves money from the treasury by electing people who promised to give them money from the treasury in exchange for electing them. The United States officially became a Republic in 1776, 231 years ago. The number of people now getting free stuff outnumbers the people paying for the free stuff. We have one chance to change that in 2012. Failure to change that spells the end of the United States as we know it.

Very true bigun! I know I'm tired of giving 30%-40% of my paycheck! Probably more like 60%-70% after we buy gas and groceries! But think god gas has "come down"(3.15$ yeah right, I have never seen gas go down during a national disaster until now)!!!
Have y'all watched the movie "Obama's America 2016"? I personally think everybody should. It's very detailed in who Obama is, and what his plans are!
