And a half percent across the board for stocks four more years for President Obama and the White House but this victory comes with a lot less enthusiasm.
Then in 2000 Nate and look no further than the stock market today Don -- -- co-founder and chairman Paul Mitchell systems.
And us now from Austin, Texas John Paul great to see you do you think -- the road ahead for our economy and our country.
Is rough enough to justify this kind of sell off in the stock market.
-- first file love -- -- out there I just lectured this morning for about 200 business people here -- -- stand.
And they ask some questions of the -- -- one had the best questions I can answer US.
He's a JP the majority of business people voted for -- the majority.
And now it's pretty close election but Obama's an office we're gonna hold back hiring what do we do now.
Things are gonna -- totally screwed up and my answer was this wait a minute.
We are still we the people the United States of America if you don't like what the president is doing even though with the guy you want it wasn't elected.
Bombard the white house with phone calls and letters.
Bombarding his own party with letters saying what you don't like about the president were still we the people -- United States of America.
Now the reaction stop mark is obviously Obama being elected a lot of people -- have confidence that he's gonna reduce the deficit and put America in the right spot.
They think were to go more towards some of the socialistic things that happen in Europe is screwed -- England.
About a love story -- of Europe but what I feel is this that he can't be that stupid that.
I mean if he continues along this way it can't do that he's gonna alienate half of America but America could change said I don't think the president to be that stupid.
I think he's going to reach across the aisles and a lot of people -- always pushed obamacare.
They locked the doors Republicans couldn't get even get in there to help with that.
I don't things to be that stupid I think that what will happen is he's got to come to.
-- -- -- he's got to come to Jesus encourage you gotta come alive and realize -- got to work with the other side so my answer is.
Don't give up on America don't stop worries some is that -- at a higher for -- while I still guys don't give up on American he had.
Let's bombarded and tell the president we the people -- we're still where the people would have here's how we feel we don't like this.
-- what about your around hiring plans with Paul Mitchell systems and for Trout.
Do do your plans and business outlook change for those businesses based on the Wen yesterday.
No they DO not at all in fact during the last four years -- part of Paul Mitchell.
We've part of patrol we hearted job Paul -- we are hiring a we will continue to hire.
Because we look at it a little different way we may not like who may or may not be an office OK not take any political stand.
But we are Americans and we find ways around things remember that -- I started job Paul Mitchell systems in 1980 was 700 dollars and -- was very biblical then.
And we made it still regards political situation.
We the people to change things just bombard our president and if you don't agree with them let -- know what he should do differently and do what other people don't do don't give up a lot of people don't want to write a letter.
They don't want you don't make telephone calls if you believe the strong.
Make a phone call every single -- to the White House so take your phone call and write a letter every single week or email to those that you don't agree with -- why you don't agree with the why you want them to change.
Eventually they're gonna get the message I firmly believe so and we the people could still change things no matter who was elected.
Thank you optimism today paid jump auditory always a pleasure it's better -- -- hair below take you from.
