That’s what I saw at first glance. But knowing her, it probably says “Tax the Poor”. Which is funny, because that’s exactly what raising taxes on businesses does. Businesses don’t pay taxes, they just pass the costs onto the consumer.

I was a small business owner with 8 employees and gross sales of a bit over a million a year and I never could afford to pay myself even one forth of the $250,000 that would get me the 3% increase coming in 2011. I would get the tax cut like most of you. It takes a pretty big small business to make a quarter million and only a small percentage do.
