it is hard to find people who actually built their own businesses brick by brick with no help, loans, friends & family, whatever
that being said, obama should by now be a better campaigner than to even say the words, even if taken out of context, you just are begging for pain
that romney tried to agitate the brits seems to take some steam out, but this is going to be a long ugly lying campaign on both sides. in other words business as usual

Agreed, I wasn't happy when he said that. Not because it wasn't true, but because I knew that ignorant people would end up buying the repub propaganda. You already hear it, and whats worse is most of the people repeating the views given in Romney's ad have never owned a business and try to pretend like they do or will.
And yes this will be the ugliest campaign ever. I'm actually glad that Obama has taken a page from the republican playbook by going negative and doing it often.

when you stop repeating the left-wing propoganda, it truely will be a miracle.
There are roads in communist China & Cuba, in the former USSR. That has absolutely NOTHING to do with building a business. I thought all you libs believed that taxing us more was to build the infrastructure, not businesses.
The small business person is the backbone of this nation and most did it without gov't support. Gov't taxes, regulations, & unneeded involvement slows the progress down.
Obama did not have to take a page from the GOP to go negative. If you have a memory, you will recall that Hillary called him nasty negative in 2007/2008. But, of course, that does not help you heap blame on the right, does it?

I did not say govt COULDNOT help or build businesses. I said that most small business owners did it on their own.
The roads, bridges, etc are there for everyone not just businesses so please do not attribute them to making a business successful. Are the schools you graduated from responsible for your education/degree or did you earn it/them? The nuts & bolts of success are personal sacrifice/hard work/divine intervention/etc not the gov't.
Spending money to lure Boeing to SC is not making Boeing successful. I did not say gov't could not help, I am saying gov't help is not necessary for success or even needed/wanted by small businesses.
We must all separate the fact and fiction. Gov't is not Santa giving presents to everyone or a Saint taking care of anyone. Gov't big enough to give you everything is big enough to take it all away. Why are you so anxious to defend the gov't and "prove" that they are the source of business success? Is this part of the "blame the rich" campaign? Is the left afraid of individual success? How about lets all be happy for small business success, for personal success, for person responsibility. Is that so wrong?

More businesses fail than succeed. Why is that? Do roads and bridges and infrastructure help them fail?
If nobody succeeds on their own, then who built America? The British? I guess we should be sending them tax money then.

A) do roads and bridges and infrastructure contribute to the failure of businesses?
B) if success is due to others, and more financial return should be given due to success.... Who helped build America and should we be repaying them financially?
