...if ya look at a tax increase as a pay cut and think about how big a pay cut you might be willing to accept and keep on working, it becomes clear why no one is investing hiring or making major purchases. Everybody is waiting to see what Obama and the democrats are going to do. The current economic situation is the result of a "perfect storm" of stupidity by gubmint.

Liberals are like a "Slinky". Totally useless, but somehow ya can't help but smile when you see one tumble down a flight of stairs!
