If you have 11 minutes, take the time to watch the video. If you worry about your job going overseas or corporate downsizing, watch the video. If you worry about how the economic downturn is sizing up to become a recession or even a depression, watch the video. If you want to help keep America at the top of it's economic game, watch the video. If you want to have more affordable products, watch the video.
Just watch the video. I'm glad that someone put together a solid video that found all the words that I couldn't. While that might make some of you say "oh, I hate the way that Bo thinks he knows all this stuff about the economy/taxes, he is so narrow minded" I implore you to watch the damn video to see for yourself if you can objectively disagree with anything that is stated in the video. If you can do that in an informed, factual and objective manor - then by all means I would love to hear the opposite side of this.
My extended family is almost exclusively comprised of small business owners, and this video really hits home. If you or anyone you know/love is self employed or has a job, watch this video and see what I fully believe is in the best interest of our economy as a country and our own personal finances.
I know that the election goes beyond just the financial and economic policies of the candidates, however it would be naive to think that other issues that are hit or miss should take a priority over the economy. Why do I say hit or miss for "other issues" instead of the economy, when you might believe that the tax cuts for Obama would help your family out more than McCain? Because that $500 bucks isn't going to go very far when the value of your house drops to shit, you or your spouse don't get your annual bonus like you had been hoping for, get your hours cut back (or worse: lose your job entirely because the company can't afford to keep you employed in a recession when they're not selling anything because noone has any money).
I'll save you the time reading, just watch the video. If you've read this far you might as well spend the other 11 minutes and watch the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66z5TDrwPxM
