I am not "anti government", Jack, Mark, etc. Government just isn't supposed to do some things, because it does them horrendously badly, and because once it does them, it opens the door to wholesale corruption.
Anti-government is those nutballs who call themselves "anarchists", and most of them are truly crazy. The wisest Americans we know wrote the book about how our government should work and what it SHOULD do. And they signed it. And we call them the founding fathers. I just think we should get back to what they knew. Even if you disagree with that premise, the fact that business and government are now as cohabitated a field full of rabbits means that there is no longer any differentiation between business and governance. The two are now one. Would it be as I wish ,and that "politics" were not about how we run our business, or that all of us are personally threatened by economic collapse, or a government which wishes to empower itself to commandeer any business or industry it deems it should (the bill debated right now in the Senate), because it wants to, but that "politics" were about things like foreign policy and whether national parks should be free. Old fashioned politics has never EVER been brought up here by me. I have lots of opinions on a wide array of such political things, but they're not intruding into "business". They're utterly off topic as it concerns "business". BTW, good luck with the IRS and them keeping straight any businesses that pay you more than 49.99 a month, 'cause you're going to need to keep all those 1099's straight and you can DAMN WELL be sure the IRS won't. I have one customer that pays more than that. He won't next year. I was going to start offering a high end service that was priced more than that. I damn sure am NOT now. Why should we be disincentivised to do what we should be doing? Even if you're NOT partisan or not political, even that should sink in eventually... I just can't imagine how we, collectively, can pretend that we need to do nothing, say nothing, and our futures will remain blue sky and sunshine. That's the opposite of professional, if you ask me... but then, you did not. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Neofast, Inc, Making internet easy 541-969-8200 509-386-4589 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
