8. All this distortion over one sentence taken out of context

I wrote a OP about it earlier today.

I believe Obama was literally talking about physically building a business location and how you obviously can't do that alone. He probably should have worded that sentence better but that entire part of his speech was, of course, the truth. Nobody can be successful through their own initiative alone. To be successful people need to have initiative AND take advantage of everything modern society provides through government taxation and shared responsibility. There's nothing anti-business about that whatsoever.
