Some of the commenters on yesterday's post seem to think that we can ignore concerns about taxes on small businesses because Joe (Samuel?) Wurzelbacher is not a licensed plumber in the state of Ohio.
First, it's not clear to me how it's deceptive to call yourself a plumber when you do plumbing work for a licensed plumbing company, even if you are not the owner of said company. Maybe that's not good enough for the plumbers union to consider you a plumber, but for 95 percent of people, that job description sounds like "plumber."

The vast majority of plumbers that work as employees do not have a license. That is the way it is. That is the way it always has been. If you wrangle pipes for a living you’re a plumber. Period!

Joe has now apparently lost his job, and just minutes ago Obama was on national TV mocking him, saying “how are things going now” “feel like you’re banging your head against the wall”.
Unbeleivable !! Even from Obama..hope that this one will sink him for good.
