Calvin Coolidge's once said, "The chief business of the American people is business," that concept is lost on today's Democrats, writes Daniel Henninger in the Wall Street Journal.
As long as they continue to slip new requirements into legislation that negatively effect business Democrats will forever be looked upon as disconnected from what drives the economy and will never be able to create any kind of economic growth.
Good examples are the 1099 provision that was slipped into the Health Care Law HR 3590, and the ban on offshore drilling. Today's Democrat party has shown they "have no clue about the business of business," Henninger explained.
Without Business there are no private sector jobs, the very thing that pays for the public sector jobs that the Democrats love to create.
It is incomprehensible that any individual that considers themselves middle class, that goes to work day in and day out, can possibly buy into the concept that corporations are the enemy.
Business are the very ones that are providing the middle class with their livelihood. When the middle class supports penalizing business, they support shooting themselves in the foot, because increase business costs get passed down and will ultimately have a negative effect on that businesses employees wages and benefits.
