One more thing here as well. We have a distribution center in Charlotte N.C.. Seems Mayor FOXX is not protecting local business or his constituents from DNC union work demands. If the folks in Charlotte feel Mayor Foxx' reverse position on this is acceptable then this is a city I'd rather not be generating local taxes for. We've had a contingency plan to move to Hialeah Florida of which city's Mayor Hernandez has offered tax incentives and a build-out of a new Distribution Center but we’re holding a static position on this until Foxx’s position becomes clearer but it doesn’t look good. Sorry NASCAR, if we go this route we’ll no longer be in a position for sponsorship.

In 2009 when it became obvious we were becoming the scapegoat as the evil CEO employer we scaled back from 1800 employees to 536. Managements directive was clear, no politics in the workplace. A week later we had to call the authorities to get Union representatives off our property and we removed them successfully because we own the property. This is my business and I’ll run it as I deem fit, end of story. Since this purging the workplace has been extremely peaceful and more than productive. We got rid of the progressives and half of that was due to that wonderful adhesive Obama used on the back of his bumper stickers. Our margins are up 28% this quarter alone. We manufacture home cleaning products that can be found under 85% of America’s sinks so we thank you for your business and I’m sure you can appreciate that there’s nothing better than collecting money I know comes from Liberals. Bottom line is as owner, CEO and Chairman of this company, I would rather stick needles in my eyes than to hire another liberal Progressive. I'm talkin' 'bout trouble, with a capital 'P' and that rhymes with 'T' and that stands for PROGRESSIVE TROUBLE. Should HR allow one to slip through, we’ll find em because they can’t help themselves from posting on social websites on our computers during work hours. The most satisfying feeling I’ve ever had was watching security shovel this human excrement out our doors….but remember, A Clean Kitchen is a Happy Kitchen! Peace…….

Ron Paul will reduce taxes and legislation more than any other candidate. He have never voted for an unbalanced budget. He has never voted to raise taxes. Please, if you do not know much about Ron Paul, take the time to learn more. Check out his record. I truly believe that he will be the savior of American Business, and the American Taxpayer. Ron Paul 2012.

Large Corporations have gotten rid of most long term employees. Planning how to trash performance evaluations so they can get rid of workers and cycle them to cheaper workforce happens all the time. Hiring Contractors, having Information Technology go to India, and other cheap non-English speaking countries to lower head count and appear on the books to be efficient. This is all garbage, nothing good about being used and thrown out every few years. Corporate America is only out for profit, and people do not matter. . Managers give Lip service to keep who is left working feel fuzzy and safe. Our Government makes it worse by over regulating, and over taxing business. Small business is struggling because of all the regulations being slapped on them. Here comes Obama-care to finish them off.

We laid off our entire staff when Odumbo was elected because I made the (correct) call that we were in for a rough ride. We're now just a family-operated business and loving it; none of the horrible taxes and potential litigations that are always hanging over your head when you have employees. We'll never hire emplyees again. Thanks, Obama, for showing us the way (you POS)!

It costs business a lot of money to hire new employess due to all sorts of fees imposed by the federal government. That is the problem with the economy.
It's time to stand up, folks! Stop paying federal income tax--EVERYONE! That's your money that you worked for. The government doesn't own you! They have enslaved us all!

no hiring anybody until obama is gone..we need some help but refuse to hire anyone with this con man in charge and his health care debacle hanging over our head..when obama is gone the certainty should become clear.

the numbers are worse than polls indicate. furthermore, like virtually everything that comes out of bho's lying sewer government economic and labor statisics are highly distilled lies. as far as recession, the premise of the poll's question is false. we never left the 2006 democrat congress' recession. we are now in bho's money laundering depression. pollsters are lying leftist hacks.

I am not hiring as well. We have been busy and expanding into new realms.
I made my decision after having to spend FIVE MONTHS waiting for a stupid registration number from the EPA: the laziest bunch of freeloading agenda-driven activists on the planet. Nice that they want to enfore all this BS, but when it comes to new startups for EPA Regulated chemicals, they are total worthless idiots. Not to mention the method of communication is a joke. I can get better online service for my drivers license than deal with these idiots.
Nope! When the current administration is gone daddy gone, and Americans finally take back this country, closing the EPA, DHS, any and all forms of bureaucracy, and let real people make responsible decisions, then I will hire.
These fools in the government are dumber than a box of hammers.
