Our objective is to provide Patriots across our nation with a touchstone of First Principles through brief, informative and entertaining analyses of relevant news, policy and opinion from reputable research, advocacy and media organizations, so they may better support and defend those Principles, and enlist others to join our ranks." —Mark Alexander, Publisher

As a serial entrepreneur, sometimes successful and sometimes not, I have taken the risks, the investments, and the 18-hour days necessary to build businesses. The President's comments have ensured that I will do my level best to never hire an employee again -- at least until the government steps away from the pot of money that small business and countless tired but creative people made possible. The arrogance, complete disdain for "profit", and the class wars this divisive man has fomented have evaporated thoughts of risking more capital even if I had it to invest. What happens when the small businesses barely hanging on fail? POTUS will not have access to my intellect. And, BTW, the White House business office sent out a blast email yesterday with the subject line: "We Want Your Ideas!", inviting input. Of course they do, but they won't get it from this business owner.
