some may think small bussiness are simple... think agin for over 10 yrs I owned & run my small bussiness.. its alot of work...more than most can imagine.. the owner/operator of a small bussiness has so much to do & keep up with..I have recently closed my bussiness (the economy finally cought up with it, just wasnt proffitable) i admit its so much easyer being employed by someone else... I miss certain aspects.. & dont others...
Ras, dont help that cock sucker, you know damn well he wouldn't help you.
As far as his invention goes, wouldn't a smart person have a production plan "before" they patent the idea? Seems stupid to be trying to figure it out after the fact.
I know a guy who has patented a few things and even has a factory overseas where he produces some of his items. A few years ago, he invented and patented a fishing cork. All was good until he took out half page adds in several magazines. He's sold a ton of the corks, but still hasn't recouped his advertising costs and may not ever. This is a guy thats been down the road a few times and this one venture/one bad decision kicked his ass. Just from what i've read from DA, he'll never go any further than his moms basement.

You only have jobs to offer to the extent that you have customers for them to serve. Remember I said you have to look at the MACRO level not the micro level to see where the economy is headed. Thanks to supply side economics we have a shrinking middle class with diminishing buying power. And its only going to get worse. Republicans won't let Obama fix the economy and if Romney wins he's going to run it right off the same cliff Bush did. Conservatives must be crazy because they keep doing the same things while hoping for different results.

That would depend on what he wanted to do. I help you guys frequently. You just never notice. For example, posting that web site for men having women problems. How do you know that somebody on here didn't get answers to some serious problems while the rest of you were trading insults with me?

So you think I should have waited to submit the patent until I had all the details worked out huh? Then what happens if somebody else has the same idea while I'm working out the details and he submits a patent on it? And do you think I'm going to be out showing people what I want to do BEFORE protecting the idea with a patent? Although I probably did play my cards a little closer to my vest than I needed to once the paperwork was filed. Plus I didn't expect this side of things to get dragged out so much. I figured I'd show my idea to a few select companies (after getting signed nondisclosure statements from them) and one of them would cut me a check. It turns out its a bit more complicated than that. And if I end up having to market the device myself I can do that too.

Thanks for saying that. I was hoping somebody would make a crack like that so I could post this video I found. Boogerboy this one is for you!

ABS is a bitch to work with. Depending on the thickness it takes a good bit of time to cut without fracturing or burning. One of my companies works with plastics (very large items) and we have a ton of waste.
There is a company in San Diego CA that works with all sorts of plastics (also sells it in bulk). You might be able to find them on the Net - if you can't I can probably go through my records and get their name.
Thanks Ras! Would that be Ridout Plastics by chance? They're on my short list. I was hoping to find something local but I may have to expand my search. And I may have to look at other plastics. A couple of places suggested... I think it was polystyrene. But that seems rather flimsy to me. Have you ever worked with it?

Repubs would love for Obama to fix the economy, the only problem is, he dont know how, because he's never done anything in his life. Every thing has always been "given" to him, he's never worked for anything in his life. He's out of his element in the White House and you're too stupid to see it. Your also too stupid to see that everything out of his mouth is a fuckin lie. The moral to this story is your fuckin stupid, DA

Boogey, you forgot to mention that he hasn't had an original idea of his own - everything that comes out of his mouth is at the direction of his advisers (puppet masters).

By which you mean that the solutions are the exact opposite of everything conservatives believe. Which is why conservatives keep expanding the same stupid ideas that crashed the economy in the first place. And blocking any reforms. Which means that there won't be any solutions until the economy is in complete ruins. And then of course conservatives will blame Obama because they're too immature to take responsibility for their own actions.
Example, conservatives STILL believe that we needed to invade Iraq and turn it from a secular nation into an Islamic nation because to admit otherwise would be to admit how utterly fucking stupid they really are.
As for Obama's accomplishments no matter what you can't take away the fact that he saved the US auto industry and made the decisions that killed OBL after your boy Bush LET HIM ESCAPE.

Nice comment, you sound just like Obama when he goes off telepromter, the government is always the answer to Liberals...BTW, still waiting for YOUR OPINION on the minimum wage.

Well that brings up a very good question Cap. What do you think the purpose of government is? Specifically what activities do you think the government should be involved in? And what do you think they should NOT be doing?
And do the rest of you agree with him?

I think the government should be like a doctor, above all, do no harm...there I just gave you an opinion, not a cut and paste or some propaganda from a union newsletter...can you do the same?
