With
Obama not knowing that plumbers make starting wages of $40.00 per hour
at a 2-4 hour minimum, and McCain probably not ever actually knowing a
plumber except when it comes to Roto-Rooter jokes because the plumbing
he has done on his properties are written off on his taxes with all
those upper echelon tax breaks he concentrates on himself, "Joe the
Plumber" knows the reality that any small business can make upwards of 2-3 and even 5 million dollars a year and just be a small business with only a small fleet of trucks and one helper with each tradesman.
So now that we're on the same page with reality, even if un-employment
rises to the proposed 9%, a plumber is still a tradesman that still
gets paid that $40.00 an hour wage with a $10 - $12 dollar an hour
helper. So the only answer is what's the real plan that slaps both
Presidential Candidates somewhere near actuality of the middle class so
they can lift themselves into upper class in the only way they know
how; with hard work and a little American ingenuity.
In the summer of 2002, the Dow dropped 1,944 in 12 days of July and
unemployment was one of the main catalysts. The unemployment rate hit
5.7% in November 2002, and here in mid-October 2008 it's past that now with some experts forecasting
unemployment to hit 9% in the '09.
Furthermore,
if "Joe the Plumber" isn't expanding with a "real liquid fluency
benefit plan" to buy monkey wrenches, pipe, glue, and fixtures (in bulk
at wholesale prices to keep in his own warehouse for more benefit),
other small business companies making those products at 5 million
gross around a 2-3 million net profit a year trying to compete with the
next item on the shelf won't be able to expand. Both small businesses
also won't be able to keep it together because 60% of that 2-3 million
is in equity and not actual liquid capital including and not limited to
15% of the remaining 40% as inventory that is sitting on the shelf not
moving however important as everyday changes go. [ ...that's not even counting the normal 15% annual overrun costs that were under-estimated and/or etc. ]
With reality going into obsolete with actuality on the move, "Feasibility"
is the new word that the Government needs to learn if they are going to
assist; micromanage; interfere in private small business ownership. The
interpretation is that the actual tax relief-regular insurance &
health insurance-benefit plan needs an overall real difference that
keeps workers on the job so they can put in a little over time so they
won't have to get that second job that's near nil to none at 9%
unemployment that only leads back to the welfare line at nowhere near
any assistance to even less tax-paying citizens. [ ...that just leads
down that same 'ol raise the taxes to bail us out worthless scenario ].
In all reality,
the American people don't mind sharing the wealth, the American last 8
years taught the world that tactical simulation exercise while We the
People all suffered many upon many downtrodden times and still gave
after giving a little gift giving what they could give.
The
"Feasibility" is that a real operating small business making even 5
million a year gross is left with less than a million that's crafted at
yet another mis-guided warfare from local, state and federal government policy against those that work their tails off
to keep this Country strong and growing.
A continuation of crafting stress & strain against We the People is not what America needs no matter who's in the White
House, Congress, or the Supreme Court whereas the best advice is in a
little pocket protector called "The Constitution" with it's real strength directly linked to an original "Declaration" called the "Independency".
...so Obama can take his weak little 250 thousand dollar small business plan and shove it in the circular file and come up with something "Feasible", and McCain can come down off his high military general 10 - 12 billion dollar a month war horse attitude and just look up the word "Feasible" in the on-line dictionary @ http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/feasible while he looks into the actual guts of the 21st Century!
*****At least the loser of this Presidential election will bring a little competition to Jon Stewart & Steven Colbert after the Alfred E. Smith dinner in New York City that brought in 2.5 Million dollars of support and aid for the poor, sick, and underprivileged represented by the Archdiocese of New York regardless of race, creed, or color that brought in an Eminence amount of laughs from McCain & Obama that will leave Saturday Night Live with jaws dropped ducking and dodging lightening from heaven trying to keep up with the competition. (ha-ha)
