What size is a small business in the top 3% of those affected by changes to the health insurance laws enacted by the HCA? I looked it up at https://epic.od.nih.gov/naics/Naicscodelist.asp Even a cursory glance shows that the small business definition includes up to 500 employees. In my county in MD, a largely bedroom community, that would include every single corporation or LLC as well as individual clones of WalMart if that moniker weren’t so big. And their gross I assume it’s gross but that makes no sense, it should read net operating profit after tax and minority interest can be at least single digit millions annually. Actually it depends on the type of business and goes much higher under computer related business. So to me a twenty five million dollar business isn’t small unless u compare it to Chrysler or GM which would love to make a profit every year for twenty so they can get even on their debt and pay a dividend to someone who isn’t on the board. I digress. Mitt mentioned these 3% deliver more new jobs than even corporations on the S&P 500. So they do. But if they were not enjoined to commit their revenue to group health insurance to be equitable they’d have to raise their wages. Not likely and certainly not dollar for dollar. Would these small businesses be willing to forgo the deductions from operations as expenses using a corporate return? I doubt it. But Romney wants us to believe his plan is better and Obama’s is in the shed knocking the gazeboe’s out of the economy.

Look if a business can’t make a profit it should close down. It shouldn’t be asking US for money. If it rides herd over my property I know I want someone in my corner to protect my rights. Someone I can trust not curse. That’s Obama.

That is the Romney/Reagan ticket. It all sounds good. What’s a little creationism, coal and expensive health insurance payments? You’ll have a job. Stop whining. What’s the problem with a dynamic marketplace where everyone is on equal footing? No EPA. No SEC? Well the SEC is a joke but no regulations. Back to the good old subprime days. You’ll have a job. You’ll buy that 4000 sf home with the fancy schmancy counter tops. Your neighbor will envy you. Join me at the club.

I’ll lower your taxes to a manageable marginal rate while I take back your mortgage and real estate tax deductions. If you have more than three toddlers cute and round and pudgy that’s all u’ll get. You can find work in the coal mine. Those immigrants who worked for nothing? Well they’re illegal. So u’ll be working the vineyards. No not as the manager. You’ll be my numero uno picker.

It sounds so easy. It sounds too easy. It’s too good to be true. Obama offers a way to reasonable improvements given a laundry list of problems. Romney promises instant success for all. Just don’t look behind the curtain. Leave your children home if you want to hear how it’s being done to you. You must use your brain if you want to understand what this race is about. Many won’t. Be someone who will.

So my taxes will be dropped in the marginal gap by 20% in exchange for my real estate taxes, mortgage interest, and contributions to my pension and IRA? I know in a flat plan with medical costs on the rise and insufficient funds to pay for them insurers will raise the price to me. Without Medicare I will have to use what little the federal government throws my way because Buffett and Met Life have to make more now than they have. All the billions thrown to the AIG’s of the world was not enough. It’s not just fairness and equity. It’s dollars and cents. If fewer people can contribute to the revenue stream as corporations make more and are taxed less my wages will fall. It stands to reason as medical insurance is obviated as bloat for the mainstream I won’t have enough to pay for college. Or I can’t pay for hospital insurance. I feel like I’m going to be starved out unless I work at Bain or KKR.

A neutral revenue stream with major cuts and the end of Medicare which is what vouchers will bring and smaller monies for pubic education as religious institutions gobble up the private donations and tuition becomes a tax incentive instead of mortgages I will be left out.

So why would anyone in their right mind trust someone from Wall Street. He has dreams and hopes. So did my stock broker. Calmly consider the crowd he goes bragging about. The money interests he has are not renewable. He isn’t for nuclear energy. He likes coal? Effluvium that stinks the streams. The end of the EPA. He is worse than Bush. He wants to turn the tables so far back we won’t be represented anymore. Romney wants to be king.

He’s angry. Has he lost hope or inspiration or money? No plans just the party to tell him what to do. He can always fall back on the idea I gave you principles and the party gave you action.

Ask yourself: How will this work out in the future? What kind of country will this increasing inequalit lead to?

I don’t really know, but past history in other unequal countries suggests it will not be pleasant. Think France under the Louis; Russia under the Czars, or maybe Mexico under the hacienda system. If history teaches anything, it is that gross inequality in money leads to gross inequality in everything else, particularly education and political rights. Is that what we want for the USA?

I saw a man who tried to convince people his double speak and chatter was not charlatan gossip. I am glad Obama didn’t take the bait.Though I expected he would he obviously came out to throw punches at any plan the Republicans have and defend his own with his left held high. But his right he held back on. There’s no time to get down in the mud with Romney who makes his case with fast facts. There is no time for Republicanism of the brand Romney represents. I think the voters know that all too well.
