The importance of Steve's well-written message bears repeating. My hope is it will make it's way to more and more people who will think wisely before casting their vote on Nov. 4th.
The "Joe the Plumber" episode of a week ago has brought to light that free enterprise as an economic system is not real popular with many Americans. That's a real disappointment. It's a little like saying that Americans don't like parades, high school football games, or apple pie.
Free enterprise is the backbone of this country - where any person regardless of their means, station, background, or education can set themselves up in business and attempt to make a go of it. Some are successful, many are not. That's not the point. The point is that we can do it.
Many of the great inventions that we enjoy in this country came about because someone persevered with an issue until they conquered it and then were able to market their solution to hun
dreds or thousands of others - at a profit.
Profit has become a nasty word in this country. I'm not talking about big business but entrepreneurial business - and if we can't make a profit, we can't create jobs, do business with other small businesses, be good corporate citizens in our community, perform volunteer work, and provide for our families.
Realtors, brokers, independent contractors, decorators, mortgage brokers, builders, stagers, home inspectors, consultants, trainers, commissioned salespeople, and anyone else on Active Rain that runs their own business or is totally responsible for their own income - unite. Free enterprise is our platform for success.
All that said, I have started a new group "Celebrating Free Enterprise," and anyone is welcome to post as long as it pertains to the common good of business generation or success. Just click on link to Join Group.
It's up to us to keep this country strong!
