After all, I'll soon be rich beyond my wildest dreams and I'll want all those special tax breaks for the uber-wealthy.

1. I started one and am doing just fine.
Had to weave my way through all the lies a bit, but hey, here I am!

2. We are a small company DEM
family. No, you don't have to be a rethug. We get our tax breaks but we also pay a crap load of tax to be honest and fair and know that taxes are needed if we want a healthy business climate. No matter how successful your company, if people aren't working your products or services will just stay on the shelves.

3. My boss is an entrepreneur
She's owned at least one business of her own since 1997, and she votes liberal.

(And she's an Arizona voter!)

4. No way
My mate and I recently started our own business and have absolutely no plans on becoming ruthuglican.
Go for all those juicy tax loopholes and give the cash to dem/liberal causes!
The repuke governor from our state says he's "created" seven thousand jobs in our state in the last two years. Part of his numbers include new business registries! When I found out about that I went totally fricken ballistic!!!!! Can you imagine? I created my own business in spite of his bullshit and governor Douglas takes the credit!
