Not too bad and not too far off from some republican proposals. I'm curious about the minimum of ten employees. We have three employees. If we add another one or two, is that somehow less beneficial than if a large company hires those same people?

I'd actually liked to see more paperwork breaks for small businesses and to get rid of some of the exceptions that make small businesses pay taxes that large businesses don't. One thing that would help a lot if small businesses would be letting us file taxes yearly instead if four times per year. With federal taxes for times per year, state taxes fire times per year, local taxes twice, and sales taxes four times that's fourteen tax filings per year. That's a lot of wasted time and expense that's not helping the economy.

Of course Obama's answer was to make us take time to file 1099 forms for everyone - our web hosting, our electric company, the phone company, the office supply store, Fry's, anyone we paid. That doesn't make businesses more productive and help the economy when every purchase requires a tax form. What the hell does that have to do with health care anyway? (The 1099 requirement on all purchases is part of Obamacare.) Thank God the republicans reversed that earlier this year.
