How is Business/Economy

[Wayne]

Just wondering how business is across the USA.

Business--up or down by percent.
........ Mine down by 75%.

Will the new Health Care Bill hurt your business?
........ As for the new taxes and regulations, YES.

Do you plan on hiring extra help this year?
........ As for me, NO. This year or next.

Do you plan on purchasing new equipment this year?
........ No. I had order two new Amayas last year but
health cost put a hold on that. I see no new
equipment in the future.

Business--up or down by percent.
........Retail store (boutique, etc.) down 40% over 2 years and possibly closing it this fall.
Graphic shop-down 20% last year but I was out for weeks ill, showing increase this year a little.

Will the new Health Care Bill hurt your business?
........ NO- READ IT...if you have less than 25 employees it HAS NO EFFECT ON YOU...Fear Mongers have blown it all out of context

Do you plan on hiring extra help this year?
........ No, with health problems cutting back...

Do you plan on purchasing new equipment this year?
........ just paid off the last lease on equipment and everything should last until I retire. Just have to keep paying warranties!
