Note that nowhere on this chart is taxes listed as a problem or cause for a business failure - its incompetence.

BUT...number 3 does list "poor location". Location could be a street, neighborhood ,or a city/town.

Incompetence = selecting a poor location.

Location being relevant to where one settles and pays more taxes relative to another location. Is that what you mean? Doesn't seem to be in your comment.

Gonna side with anon 2 on this. Still comes out as poor judgement = incompetence.

Hey Fannie, you're a business owner then? Pray tell, what line?

will,
believe or not I'm a business
owner that would benefit greatly
on a single tax rate, but do I
think it right ( not really) I've
good a few to many employees because
business is global now but a traded
in the Porsche for a Jetta, Im doing fine-why should I eat steak
when everyone else is eating hamburg and potatoes Fannie

Spoken like a true socialist ;>

Seriously. With the savings from a tax reduction, what would you do with the money?

Buy a politician? Or that long awaited vacation in Leominster, MA?

Will,
Your so wrong, not even close.
I'm not even religious. A small
business is much different than
a large corp-you get to know your
employees, you see their families
grow kids go off to college, buy
their first house- we are a team
I could'nt have done it alone-
