I just have to throw this out there about small business...
Do I love small business? Hell yes I do. My dad was a farmer for most of his life, as well as my grandfather, great grandfather, great great grandfather... you get the picture. And they had a small business with employees that they treated well.
But now I work for small business. And my father, and his ancestors would never have treated me like my employers. I get paid well under what I am worth. But it is a job. Yes job creation from small business works, but to what gain? My employers take their tax breaks and don't pay us any more with it than they would if they didn't have tax breaks. And they voted for Romney, already did it, so they could take vacations which I will never have the luxury of doing while I work for them. I don't have healthcare, I work 50 hours a week, and I am still the subject of question because of my political leanings.
The problem is that my employers get tax breaks personally. They can take as much money as they want, and use tax breaks personally to "fix their problem". It has nothing to do with small business tax breaks. It has everything to do with personal tax breaks. Why would you invest yout money in a company that has higher taxes than you do? You won't. That, to me, is the problem.
