A good chunk of pending business for us depended on the election.
We told outright that if Obama won, the orders would go to China and Taiwan instead of here. Ankle grabbing times ahead.

Mr Anonymous
“David” (he asked to remain anonymous for obvious reasons) told Host Kevin Wall on 100.5 KXNT that “elections have consequences” and that “at the end of the day, I need to survive.”
Eventually customers will out you...
And make sure you don't.

IMHO, this is a direct result of a lack of understanding by the worker bees that the companies they work for are not in business IN ORDER TO PROVIDE THEM JOBS.
They are in business to provide PROFIT to the owners of the business.
What will come from this in the long run is that the "non-rich" will get "less rich."
The "rich" will not be effected. They will always find a way to survive and thrive.
Oh, and the working poor will find it more difficult to survive.

This is actually going to be pretty common even though it probably won be reported on much...
Other businesses instead of expanding will choose to just stay under 50 employees.

Every time a republican boss fires somebody the stated reason will be Obamacare no matter what the real reason is. You can bet your last dime on it.

And everytime a Democratic boss fires someone the stated reason will be the great recession, the worst of our times, the product of George W. Bush and Republican policy. Life's a bitch.

No boss would be that stupid. That's the reason this Bozo wants to remain anonymous.

Lawsuit? Why? Employers have to keep people employed even if they can't afford them anymore?
Yeah...that will hold up in court.
