I am an employer. I've cut back dramatically in the non essential work we give to contractors because our revenue is in decline. They in turn have laid off crews. If my taxes go up I will be forced to cut back even more.
Is your employer in business to give you a job or to make himself a living?
I am in business to make money. I will rehab apartments because I can get a better tenant, quicker, who is willing to pay more money. I don't rehab properties because I'm a nice guy. Because rents are down and the quality of the tenants is down I've cut way back on what I do to fix the apartments.
If your employer’s costs go up, who will he fire first: You or Himself?
I have a wife and two sons to support. I'll be the last to go.

Exactly why the Bush tax cuts must not be compromised and extended for all, especially the so called rich who did pay so many taxes but will be forced to lay off so many working class people and create the cesspool of socialism that is killing European socialist countries and communist nations. They always go bankrupt because they steal from the rich and the poor.
And democrats are the worst of all.
