POLITICS

What's politics got to do with it?

U.S. politics right now is very partisan driven. It is easy to wonder where is the integrity and which side has the most of it. Politics can kill ideas. It can kill dreams. It can kill recovery. It can kill livelihoods - especialy that of the small business. Right now, if you ask many of the small business owners around the country, they will probably tell you that they wish the Washington politicians would get over their partisanship and get onboard to lead the recovery, which means, signing off on a bill that will help small businesses reignite their engines. Isn't it unbelievable that both parties can't see that the key to the recovery is small business? Everyone laments the 10% unemployment - the jobless recovery, if you may (The Dow hit 11,000 recently!) but nobody can put aside politics long enough to do the right thing by small business, which in turn will fix the economy. Politics is literally shoving not only small business, but the entire American economy off a cliff.
