Frank Guinta – standing up for small biz unlike Democrat Carol Shea-Porter attempted biz beat down.

One of the STUPIDEST things the Democrats have done this year was embedded in the Obamacare monstrosity: the $600 1099 threshold.  All companies are supposed to tell the IRS who they have paid money to during the year.  This insanity will certain impact productivity – especially for really small biz (like us).  Do you realize …
