Why do we care about small businesses? Look, on one level, we care about the entrepreneurs--the Horatio Algers and the people working toward the American dream--but even more fundamentally, small businesses produce two-thirds of the new jobs in this country. If small businesses are suffering, jobs are suffering and America suffers. ObamaCare is an absolute disaster for small businesses. Forty-one percent of small business owners have held off on plans to hire new employees, and 38 percent say they are holding off on plans to grow their businesses in direct response to the law. By

The significance of small businesses extends beyond the dreams of individual entrepreneurs; they are integral to our economy by generating two-thirds of new jobs. When small businesses struggle, not only do they face challenges, but the broader job market and economy do as well. The well-being of these enterprises is crucial for maintaining healthy employment levels across the nation, making their success a collective concern.

One of the major hurdles for small businesses has been the implementation of ObamaCare. A staggering 41% of small business owners have delayed hiring new employees, while 38% are postponing growth initiatives due to the pressures of the healthcare law. These statistics underscore the profound impact that legislation can have on the operations and future of small enterprises, which are vital for economic prosperity.

Look, if you say that science will eventually prove there is no God, on that I must differ. No matter how small they take it back, to a tadpole, to an atom, there is always something they can't explain, something that created it all at the end of the search. And no matter how far they try to go the other way – to extend life, play around with the genes, clone this, clone that, live to one hundred and fifty – at some point, life is over. And then what happens? When the life comes to an end? I shrugged. You see? He leaned back. He smiled. When you come to the end, that's where God begins.

You say you should have died instead of me. But during my time on earth, people died instead of me, too. It happens every day. When lightning strikes a minute after you are gone, or an airplane crashes that you might have been on. When your colleague falls ill and you do not. We think such things are random. But there is a balance to it all. One withers, another grows. Birth and death are part of a whole.

My life amounts to no more than one drop in a limitless ocean. Yet what is any ocean, but a multitude of drops?

You say you're 'depressed' - all i see is resilience. You are allowed to feel messed up and inside out. It doesn't mean you're defective - it just means you're human.
