[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 596631, member: 4362"] I don't think tax cuts alone will do it. This has got to be coupled with relaxed regulation on businesses wanting to expand or enter into new ventures. We have reached a point of diminishing returns when it comes to regulations and permitting. This has created a new government institution whose sole purpose apparantly is to suck the blood from the very people that pay for their existance. It is ridiculus to have to spend - in my case - $20,000 on environmental impact studies, silt screening, permits, etc. etc before I even break ground. On a 30 year note, this equates to around $152,000 and this is for nothing! I'm only a minnow as my idea would only employ around six people. It would generate good taxes in the form of sales tax, income tax and would provide a decent living for those who I worked there. However, I'm not going to pay $20,000 for someone to tell me water will run downhill or a "tax" to let me pursue a dream. I can change my dream right quick as I also understand that $20,000 will buy a lot of worms and cold beer. :nod: [/QUOTE]
