Facing a New Year

With the economic thermometer reading disaster for the coming year, what is there for my business? Now is supposed to be the time to look at your business plan and decide if it is time to move forward or stay stifled.
The truth needs to be told. The government makes sure you keep no capital to invest each year in your business. Because of this, it is hard to run a business these days. Capital is so important to grow your business, and you should not have to be punished. This is how I have felt for the 11 ½ years that I have been in business. Here is an example: I have a loan, and I cannot make additional payments because it goes against me at the end of the year. I still have to claim it as income, but I do not have it. I like paying down my loan before due date so that I can purchase additional equipment sooner. IT JUST ISN’T FAIR!
I should not have to be a rocket scientist to figure out the tax codes, so I can KEEP MY MONEY. I cannot be a huge corporation to benefit from the breaks in the tax codes. No one is going to bail me out if I make a risky financial decision. Why should anyone else get this benefit? I, a taxpayer, am paying for their decisions and not my own.
I understand business. You have to be an honest, hard working individual. You should not get breaks or rewarded if you are dishonest or corrupt. Where is the Real America? To be continued . . . . . .
