How are we supposed to know if we will have a profit at the end of the year when things change and fluctuate during the year? Right now we are paying off credit card bills for $8000 in server and network equipment.

How does that type of attitude help small businesses plan for the future and try to hire and pay employees, even if they are just part-time?
Do you think this puts you in the fabled "over taxed rich" or the reality of over burdened middle class?

If you were an oil company the government would subsidize you and then let you skate on taxes.






EDIT
I don't get why people think taxing the middle and lower class more than 30% of their income is fair or constructive but taxing the upper classes any more 3% is stifling and morally abhorrent. The upper classes make more than that in interest in a matter of days. The middle class will never get that back, not even through social programs.
