Smartass?

Wow, Joe B gets mad as easy as Bob Ethridge does.

The authoritarian streak among "progressives" is remarkable.

Still, it is easy to see why Joe Biden and the Obama admin generally have no sympathy for the tax burden on small businesses.

1. They themselves have never run anything, or had any job other than in "public service," where pretty much everything is done FOR you, not TO you.

2. They don't actually PAY taxes, as we found out in confirmation hearings over and over again. Taxes are for the little people, not for the titans of government.

Apparently facts are only for the little people.

Conservatives are fond of telling the unemployed that they need to assume responsibility, take some initiative, and stop waiting for Uncle Sugar to help them out.

Likewise, small business owners would probably be better off focusing on growing their business instead of waiting for the government to help them out.

89: Tim Geithner. That's a 50% honesty rate. Is your defense REALLY that SOMEONE in the administration paid taxes, and therefore everyone does?

And, as for "help," surely there is a difference between giving a person money taken from others (the kind of help given to mooches and leeches) and getting to keep more of the money you have earned (the kind of help small business men and women deserve)

You should try writing comments again later, perhaps after you have finished your GED.

If some guy in his 50's has paid taxes his entire life and he gets unemployment benefits in what sense is it not 'his' money?

Is the fact the T != 0 material?
