Libby's just trying to make up for that mislabeled law she's been trying to pass that forces all employers to pay mandatory sick time. This woman is the worst we could ask for in this economy.
She was recently invited to speak at the Mid Coast Chamber's yearly dinner. So many businesses objected, they had to pull the plug on her at the last moment.
In my opinion, the only Democrat candidate that "gets it" is John Richardson

Great, her idea is to take from one company and give to another. Why am I not surprised. What would be better if she went to a company that had never had a grant or other govt help yet still managed to grow and be successful, that would be a good business model.
