i don't know much about 'blue dog' dems, but i know they're supposed to be fiscally conservative. does that mean they're closet republicans?
i just want to know how, if you make it harder for businesses to meet what they've set as their bottom line, it's a good thing? i work for a business, i help do the budgets. i know what the margins are, and i know what the profits are. i also know that the owner has his idea of what he should make. if the cost of doing business rises, i also know it's not him who will be cut back. now, it's all well and good to say that corporations make a lot of money, and need to pay their fair share. but i think it's ignoring reality to think that the ceo, the cfo, or the vp's, stockholders or owners are the ones who are going to take the hit when the bottom line looks like it will be lowered. prices will go up for their goods and services, or the amount of employees will be lowered. but stockholders will get their share, and the fat cats will still get fed. so, how does any of that help the middle class?
my concern when i ask these questions is not showing concern for the rich. i'm concerned for myself, and my co-workers and others just like them.
