caused my business to close down that year. I know what they are going through as it was just a few years before my 'retirement'. Yeah, retirement became a pipe dream just beyond my reach until recently. I would never start a business if a conservative of any 'party' was in charge. Historically, conservatives suck at the economy. The person they voted for makes a difference in my emotional response. If they voted for the Convicted Felon, adjudicated rapist, I have no phucks to give.
