I own a small business. Blah Blah liberal In-laws. Blah Blah "They". Blah Blah Blah. No wonder this country is fucked.
Unfortunately this is what our country has currently come to (for the rest of the world, please sit back and enjoy the show). The "all liberals are leaches and just looking for handouts from the job creators” stereotype that has been perpetrated by the Fox News, Tea Party, Koch Brothers, and/or [Add Conservative Group of Choice Here] for the last few years is bullshit.
I am also President and CEO of my own company for nearly 5 years. I am the “They”. I pay my employees well, give them good benefits, and make a healthy profit. I am a ‘Merican and a liberal.
If this country is fucked (which I don’t believe it is),
then it is down to childish and shortsighted views like you have presented. I will go with dhromed on this one and assume that you
in-laws don’t really understand the nuts and bolts of what it means to be a
small business owner and not some liberal bias.
