Whether strategy is working or not.
Is what the prices that -- at the -- If you're paying less than you paid a year or two ago more than -- strategy working which are paying more.
And indeed so are a lot of businesses making it.
So we're all paying more for everything that they make.
And these guys know that for stand we've been checking in with them throughout the election season would plan to continue doing so put -- about McCarthy is bakery owner David McArthur.
And over caters CEO puts you -- a lot of it was that that debate has I didn't get a chance to ask the question when he was there.
What did you think of of that debate and how Romney.
Comported himself.
That he did well he -- come out a strong -- previous.
Debate but.
He pointed I think the only difference there was that because the president showed conference right presidents showed up.
I -- the moderator was a little bit biased in my opinion because she was -- -- from the a couple of times -- thought that was wrong.
But what's really hit home to me that struck and have -- in my business my personal opinion is against price to mean right away dollar 86 to four dollars.
If you -- my billions of somebody couldn't in four years and balance a budget.
Keep gas prices slow to what they're supposed to do with -- elected to do it for years I have my controller could balance the budget of four years they -- do that would -- anymore.
My -- could make good food and -- or how can they keep mum on board I couldn't do that.
So now we gave Obama his chance I felt we gave me chance TF we is I think now Romney is making a lot of sense of what he's saying.
I'm David on this gas thing the argument that the president had in response was that.
You forget governor Romney we were in the midst of recession that's my guess is -- -- there and what's left himself open to.
Well are you saying the only way to get prices look it's a resides and obviously governor Romney didn't follow up what apple what do you make of that.
Argument.
Well that's against -- that he totally avoided he was asked the question about his secretary of energy whether he had any responsibility on gas prices.
Fuel prices and and he avoided the answer there.
And when he was asked about it there's who certainly -- his response was well within a dollar gift with a dollar 8060 gallon we were in the midst of a recession -- Way to go back to -- another recession and have dollar 86 a gallon gas.
What people forget is this president campaign the first time on higher energy prices those the match the prices of Europe so.
All of you find people that voted for a -- you've got what you wish for right down four dollars a gallon.
-- this today move the needle for you at all David listening to it last night I know you were not a fan of the president but.
Did -- say that I that he was more enlivened last night.
But trying to put publicity argument but the trend is the friend the economy is getting better albeit slowly but dobbs.
Taken.
It did take a bet on my record in this guy's promises to that move -- -- You know -- what -- movie was I was I was I was sold.
So mad that I couldn't -- go to sleep you know I agree when I hear this president -- in front of the American public and tell them the lies.
That he has cut taxes for small business eighteen times is an out right.
-- a lot I don't know it.
TJ that figure but I don't know waiting time I don't know where does -- came from eighteen times and some million dollars I haven't seen any tax that -- taxing result nobody until just on the federal hello he's not responses artist and -- as you -- for you -- the last forty years.

Food prices going up gas prices going up.

Not gonna have to worry about health -- worry about if the bush tax cuts are going to be put back in the place -- not.
Who knows at.
-- what do I do.
David what about leading to -- that -- it's it is it easy thing for me to say leaving aside inflation and independent commodity prices driven up your dates and costs.
Have your taxes gone up outside the local level.
When you know what's happened is is we are taxes -- -- having gone up but they haven't gone that.
That is they are seeing -- -- -- they not -- times.
Well what do we what is what is called wanna cut -- as he says okay hire veteran -- been unemployed for six months I'll give you a 5000 dollar credit.
That's not a tax cut what are my to a new go far somebody has been working for me for fifteen years so what can now hire veteran get a 5000 dollar tax credit.
