Joe the plumber is working for a licensed company. However, he does attend classes for his line of work and is currently getting education to get his masters. The man asked a legit question and Obama answered with an honest reply. Instead of explaining to use exactly what he means by "spread the wealth around" the Obama campaign has done nothing but cut this plumber down. Now, how is that fair? He is still a working American average Joe. His question is a question that a lot of people had.
My husband is not a business owner but he does run a business and he just cannot believe how people do not see a problem with taxing small businesses. Some of these small business are barely making it now, having had to cut back on employees as things are now. If they have that much more going out of their business, they are going to get rid of more employees or shut the doors and everyone loses their job.
Obama's campaign talks about McCain's campaign not focusing on the issues and trying to distract the public.....well that is what the Obama campaign is doing with all this Joe bashing. Whether or not you think Joe is a real plumber or not doesn't make his question any less important for those who do own and run small businesses. So regardless of who asked....that was a huge question that needed asked and Obama is planning to spread the wealth. Take from one to give to another. Someone please explain to me again how that is fair?
