I feel sorry for everybody in the US. 50% of them were dumb enough to
 bring it on
 themselves. They have no idea what they just did. Perhaps they will figure
 it out in
 the next four years.

 IMHO the next 4 years will be a disaster. Grid lock (as it should be.) and
 20
 trillion dollars in US debt. I am not sure the US will ever recover.

 I am very old and it will not affect me much one way or the other but a
 wonderful
 country to live in has just been destroyed. Private aviation is finished
 as the price
 of fuel will not come down. The finest health care in the world will be
 decimated. We
 are now well on the way to becoming a third world nation.

 You are correct.  The most accurate way I can think of to describe Obama
 is that he
 is a lying, narcissistic, Marxist, megalomaniac.  At best he is clueless
 about what
 made this country great and how to keep it that way.  At worst he knows
 exactly what
 he is doing and is doing it to destroy our society.  The outcome of this
 election
 causes me to be embarrassed to be an American for the first time in my
 life.  It is
 an extremely sad state of affairs.  My wife is from Southeast Asia.  Even
 as corrupt
 as their government is, it is less intrusive than what our government has
 become.  I
 planned on spending the winter months in Thailand when I retire.  However,
 now I am
 inclined to take up permanent residence there.  Many would consider it to
 be a third
 world country but the standard of living in the USA is headed in that
 direction and
 living there will probably be safer than living here when things come
 unglued as they
 most assuredly will under Obama's watch.  The only valid reason I see to
 staying here
 is to fight the good fight without regard to concerns of a safe and
 comfortable
 retirement.

 My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from
 too much
 government. Thomas Jefferson

Its time for the small business owners to treat themselves to a week
vacation- close up shop for a week, send the employees home for a week, and
sit around a pond fishing, or leave the country on a cruise, and stop
spending money in the US. The impact on the economy would be enormous. And
maybe, just maybe, collectively, us business owners can regain some of the
respect we deserve for employing the rest of the country. If not, at least
we get a week off.

For 22 years the longest vacation I took was 4 days, and was on the phone
the whole time. Its time we stop letting other people reap the fruits of
our hard labor.

Lets decide a date for our vacation!

"close up shop" I think they should all do that permanently. That would cut off
the supply of tax money. Without income the small biz owners  could apply for food
stamps.

Sometimes the US must be shocked to do the right thing. Pearl Harbor was
a good example. I also think the Congress could refuse to compromise and
let the US go off the fiscal cliff in January.
