Thanks so much for sharing those thoughts, Tom - and Happy Birthday!

Makes you wish you paid more attention in that econ 101 class huh! I am 55 on Easter Sunday and I have worked for myself for 40 years. I once put a roof on a house, stacked rafters, nailed plywood, and put the paper down by myself with no ladder or help for $100.00.

Now, my companies are financially healthy. We save for a rainy day, we tax plan like crazy people, and we don't cheat, lie, or steal a penny from anyone. Yes, I am a conservative. But as for me, my wife and my children, we will never starve, not even close.

Work hard, work honestly, and my young friends think very carefully about your young wives, husbands and your children when you vote. Its in your hands now. And remember, it can be harder than anything you can possibly imagine. Or, it can be the most fabulous adventure in the history of man.

Good luck...
