I Can Dream can't I ???

if I am not mistaken Obama will be putting large taxes on small companies.

Not directly... He will heavily tax your suppliers.

He is your friend, until you make $250,000. Then you are the devil incarnate. He clearly does not like the American Dream.

Which will in turn drive up costs for the businesses, making it much more expensive to operate, causing layoffs at both of our companies. Oh, goody...

My company, (IT company, 7 employees, c. $2,000,000 in yearly revenue), is making plans for our product costs to go up. We are also making plans as to how to survive if we lose our line of credit with the bank.

Frankly, we can eat a little margin on product... As long as it does not get absurd. But if our bank closes our line of credit, for any reason... We would be in a pickle.

Our main supplier is Dell. I see two things happening in the near future for them. A.) Our prices won't change too much. We will still be able to obtain product at decent costs. BUT... B.) It will take longer to get the product because Dell will have to cut jobs to make it work for them. Also, suport will lag. We choose Dell for several reasons, but first is they have AWESOME Business to Business support. I get an english speaking person who does NOT just read me a flowchart, every time.

To give McCain his due...I read this morning he has made some effort to dial down the violent reaction of some of the more rabid supporters by saying that Obama is a decent man with whom he has political differences. His running mate has not. And unfortunately, once the genie is out of the bottle it is hard to get it back in.

Sad, very sad.
