(19,458 posts)Just in case, remind him that the President has CUT taxes for small business EIGHTEEN TIMES since taking office. Also has expanded the SBA, created more loans for small businesses, included tax incentives for hiring employees. The Stock Market has doubled under the President's tenure, which means that your son's customers will have more to spend. Frankly, consumer confidence is soaring again, as is consumer spending (new numbers just came out so you can google them.) Anyone with a business in America, would be stupid to vote for a republican.. unless your son is a billionaire, chances are his customers are going to be other small businesses and/or average Americans whose taxes will rise around 2k under Romney's plan. The tax cuts Romney/Ryan are pushing, will not benefit him in the least. In fact, when the R/R ticket extracts their payment for the huge billionaire tax cuts (they get 250k each) it will come from home mortgage deduction, student loan deduction, etc. And once again. as under Bush, the SPENDERS in America will be hosed. The Koch Brothers are not going to be buying from your Son's business...
