I Went To An Asian Restaurant Last Night With My Mother & We Conversed A Bit With The Owner. Current White House Administration What Are You Doing To Help Businesses Thrive & Not Continue To Hinder Them With Outrageous Price Increases For Supplies Needed For The Businesses? Are You Planning On Doing Anything At All To Build Our Country Back Up & Not Help Tear It Down?

If I am wondering about this question, I am sure others out there are wondering also.  My mom and I went to an Asian restaurant last night. We struck up a conversation with the owner who was also serving our table too. I noticed as we entered the restaurant that there was a help wanted sign posted also. I think we were both in shock when he began to share with us the cost of supplies, he is currently facing in reality. A 40-pound box of chicken prior to this covid garbage they're still trying to peddle on us out there today cost $40.00. Do you know what he is paying today for that same 40-pound box of chicken? It costs him $150.00-$160.00 for the exact same item. That is outrageous, totally outrageous. He shared about the cost of oil too. Then how much more expensive it is for a business owner to take on more staff to help in the restaurant. Current White House Administration why are you putting such a costly burden upon businesses out there? Maybe send less money to Ukraine and let other nations kick in their fair share of some money to send to them and spend money on our own southern border to protect us. Better yet why not help and not hinder the small businesses out there trying to survive. Just me thinking out loud again.

We were at The Christian Publishers Outlet before dinner. My mom likes to shop there when in town. When checking out I mentioned how her purchase would go towards my rewards spending account along with my purchase. Well, guess what? No more spending rewards program anymore. When covid hit the price of books increased. The owner had to make a business decision back then. Either do away with the rewards program or keep the cost of the books down and not increase the book prices. They chose the latter. No business should have to be faced with these tough decisions. I liked the rewards program, for every $100.00 spent you then received a coupon or something like that, it was money off of your next purchase.

These are 2 examples of how local businesses have been disrupted in one form or the other. Will the current administration in The Whie House be reaching out to businesses to help them or are you deciding to be an active participant in the possible closure of their American dream? You know the dream, work hard and be diligent and you too can fulfill the American dream of owning your own business. Not only owning it but creating a legacy for future generations to continue on in the American dream?
