72% Believe Small Business Owners Primarily Responsible for Their Own Success

Still doesn't make you a business owner.

No, you're right it doesn't. The IRS does though. Thanks for trying, Ancient McPastYourPrime

No, the IRS doesn't determine whether your a business or not. I understand you THINK it does and that is why you're so amusingly confused.

Why are you still talking?

I'm typing. Your still typing crap, so I'm trying to straighten you out. At least keep someone from falling into your lies and confusion.

They understand....the poll said primarily responsible

What does the poll that asks are businesses TOTALLY responsible for their success say?

Oh for the love of God.... nobody denies that government provides basic services like police and fire protection, etc that enables us to thrive... and that's what we pay taxes for. That wasn't Obama's message and you know it, the message was intended to gin up his whackaloon base and deride the successful as having done it on the backs of the little guys. It was very undignified yet this is what you get when you put a guy into office whose formidable years were spent in the company of communists and other assorted radicals. This, in the eyes of President Barry Kardashian, is the way America works... the one per centers live on the backs of the ninety-nine per centers.

It's a fool's folly.

"that's what we pay taxes for"
DAMN STRAIGHT. WE PAID FOR IT. It was not given to us by anyone. Government does NOT do a damn thing, manufactures nothing, owns nothing, has nothing UNLESS IT HAS BEEN GIVEN THE MONEY THAT SOMEONE EARNED.
Government has not done one damn thing to help any of my businesses, ever.
Everything that government does COMES FROM THE MONEY SOMEONE ELSE EARNED.

Yes, we did. And now one more time in the fading hope that those without a clue will see the light:

Infrastructure did not precede business.

Infrastructure happens when people are willing to take the necessary risks and put in the hard work to do business which in turn attract more people making the development of more shared services both practical and desirable. And it is because there are businesses providing products, services, and opportunity for work and income that allows existing infrastructure to be maintained and new infrastructure to be created.

The businessman does not conduct his business for your benefit. He conducts it because he is looking to his own interests to put bread on his own table.

He does not hire the employee for the employee's benefit. He hires the employee because he cannot do all the work himself and the employee helps him put more bread on his own table.

The employee does not work for the businessman for the businessman's benefit. He works to earn income for himself so that he can put bread on his own table.

And with everybody looking to their own interests, they nevertheless benefit each other and all can prosper.

It is a concept that Barack Obama seems unable to grasp. I wonder if any of his adoring public are smarter than he is?

Many small businesses also make charity donations to local schools. Creating goodwill is considered smart business by most in business.

Funny how Papa Obama wants gov't aka himself to take credit
for another's success

But yet...... when there is failure he wants no responsibility
funny how that works

Yes, and it is also good for the soul. Voluntary charity is the foundation of a caring and moral society, but the operative word is voluntary. When it is the government confiscating the earnings of the one who earned them to use for the benefit of somebody who didn't it becomes something quite different with more negative consequences than positive ones.

The point remains, however, that few work because they feel obligated to do so for their community or state or nation. They work so that they may prosper. But in the process they will benefit many others.
