WHAT I’vE SEEn In
My TIME in business,
and in the legislature, is
that when people get
rich or they get elected,
sometimes they change.
their ethics change
because they think they
are better than thou. if
i really believed that i
became rich because
somehow i’m superior to
other people that would
be absurd.

WE LIvE In A BIPARTISAn
WORLD and i just hate
that. i see people engaging
in political debate, both
republicans and democrats
alike, who would rather see
our country be destroyed
than lose. they’ll sit there
and pick on somebody or
something just for the sake
of picking on them for their
party. i don’t see anything
that might happen in the
foreseeable future that
would make me become a
democrat or a republican.
it just won’t happen.
RAISE TAxES IF WE HAvE TO, i don’t have a problem
with that. but raising taxes and still having the same
problems, to me that is a problem and it bothers me
deeply.
In OUR SOCIETy, the minority speaks louder than the
majority, and that’s a scary thing. the only time we hear
the majority is when a vote takes place, and even then
imagine having a right to vote and not voting.

THERE ARE SOME In
THE GOvERnMEn T
who simply do not
understand the
beauty of the free
market system and
those people make it
particularly hard for
the small business
person. if you look
at our economy, the
creativity, the growth
and the productivity
mostly comes from
small business and
government should
cooperate, not impede.
