An email I recieved today
Dear Fellow Business Owners
As a business owner who employs 30 people, I have resigned myself to the
fact that Barack Obama will be our next president, and that my taxes and
fees will go up in a BIG way.
To compensate for these increases, I figure that the Customer will have to
see an increase in my fees to them of about 8-10%.
I will also have to lay off six of my employees. This really bothered me as
I believe we are family here and didn't know how to choose who will have to
go. So, this is what I did. I strolled thru the parking lot and found
eight Obama bumper stickers on my employee's cars. I have decided these
folks will be the first to be laid off.
I can't think of another fair way to approach this problem. If you have a
better idea, let me know.
You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away people’ s initiative and independence.
You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves.
…..Abraham Lincoln
In the words of Nikita Khrushchev (reincarnated as Barack hussein Obama):
“We cannot expect Americans to jump from capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving Americans doses of socialism until they suddenly awake to find out they have Communism
