Post Election...now what?

Now we enter the land of deadlock and loggerheads for two years. The bad news? Nothing much good can get done, or the bad undone. The good news? Nothing much worse can happen!

There is now bipartisan agreement to quickly get the silly 1099 reporting law repealed. As it turns out, it was inserted into the HealthCare bill by a staffer who'd never worked in small business before and figured that you could just punch a button and out the 1099's would come. This is why our officials need to read their legislation BEFORE they vote on it. Novel concept, I know.

House Ways and Means, which controls the money, will now be headed by one of the best and brightest people in our land, not to mention in Wash. DC, Wisconsin's Paul Ryan. So there is much hope now that the financial controls can get put into place. I'm not sure that any of us will like it! We're all pretty spoiled, frankly, and the hard decisions will make us all hold our breath until we turn blue. But it won't matter. It has to be done.

Pray for our leaders. They really do need it. And so do we.
