Do you realize whats left once they take 75% from your net income? You say on a million$ ... is that before or after expenses/taxes?

Most folks that gross (1-mil+-) spend at least two thirds making it.

I gross over 950-K a year running a small trucking company in the Midwest, ... and after paying my fuel, my drivers, maintenance, licensing, insurance, road uses taxes, ... I am lucky to keep 225-k. Now lets minus 75% instead of the customary 23/25%.

Are you shameful or what Kenneth?

In my opinion, ...taking home 56-k from a business that grosses almost a mil is not worth it.

My drivers make 40+ with NO skin in the game, ... NO expenses or responsibility.

And for those that only gross say a few hundred thousand, go figure that out?
You would not be able to properly raise a family and send your children to school.

I guess you dont mind BIG Governments hand in your back pocket.
Sound like you dont mind sharing, ... maybe you can send me a few thousand dollars to make ends meet this month.

I sit here and read your logic and wonder why you still posts here!

Anyway, .... carry on, ... I see you lose more of than you win on these message boards.
