Congress, Can You Spare a Dime?

\"ArtisticImage via Wikipedia

 Dear Concerned Taxpayer,

Do you remember or have you ever heard the song, \”Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?\” Drawn from the 1932 musical New Americana, it became known as the \”anthem of the Great Depression.\”

Now, to avert a double-dip recession or potentially worse if we don’t get our nation’s finances in order, we urgently need all Americans to ask: \”Congress, Can You Spare a Dime?\” 

If Congress would cut spending by just 10 percent, or a dime for every dollar the government spends, it would slam the brakes on our nation’s dangerously mounting debt and pave the way to a balanced budget.

Independent Women: \’ObamaCare – A Small Biz Nightmare\’

Hadley Heath of the Independent Women\’s Forum outlines the negative consequences that ObamaCare has on small business owners. \”First of all: time costs. Small employers simply don\’t have time to read over reports like this one to stay up-to-date with the Department of Health and Human Services\’ attempts to micromanage the health sector. Sadly, the biggest changes haven\’t even happened yet. In 2014, many employers will recognize that the introduction of Medicaid expansions, state-level health care exchanges, and minimum essential requirements will change the landscape of health insurance in the U.S. so drastically that they will be better off letting their employees fend for themselves.\”
