Leave the city! Small businesses already work only for the benefit of the Landlord, Sales Tax and Con Edison. There is no room anymore for small businesses in the People's Republic of the Bronx.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6850750806594927202.post-70984301205746605832010-10-06T20:32:24.581-04:002010-10-06T20:32:24.581-04:00"A study commissioned by the business group P..."A study commissioned by the business group Partnership for New York City that was released last week says it would set the city back $789 million a year, though supporters argue much less."<br /><br />How much less? $500 million? $400? $300? Even if it is less than half of what the study says, can we really afford to lose any more money in the city/state? <br /><br />These taxes are grinding small businesses into the ground.

Bronx Borough Preside...From the BP's website...<br />Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr... hosted a hearing on “Jobs for the 21st Century,” a public meeting... to receive input from the public, private and not-for-profit sectors to better determine what local, state and federal government can do to create jobs and put New Yorkers back to work.<br /><br />Apparently, this was an exercise in futility, as he and the City Council plan on supporting socking it to businesses one more time with this legislation.<br /><br />Here's a novel idea, how about "reducing taxes" so that people have more money to take care of themselves...
