I consider myself to be an informed citizen, especially when it comes to issues that directly affect my small business, but the Obama health care plan is an issue that keeps changing course and I am beginning to feel uninformed. I know I am not alone in asking the question: “What IS the public option plan and how will it affect me and my small business?”

Give some thought to your overall social media strategy. Is it your goal to increase awareness of your personal brand? Tell potential customers about your products and services? Educate yourself about the latest trends in your industry? Connect with potential employers? Get engaged with a community built around similar interests? Build a mass audience?

Are you an entrepreneur? A self-employed professional with employees? A small business owner?
House Democrats are proposing a surtax ranging from 1 percent to 5.4 percent on those persons who make $280,000 or more. The Treasury Department has estimated that more than six of every 10 individuals who earn $280,000 or more are small business owners, operators, or investors. Half of all small businesses with 20 to 249 employees are likely to have their income affected by the surtax.

I had my fifteen minutes of fame on Wednesday when I attended President Obama’s speech on health care. I was able to ask the president my question of choice on the issue. My question was this: What current long-term social program created and run by the government should we look to as a model of success and one that we as taxpayers should be confident that a new government-run health care system would be better than the current system in place? In other words, what are you going to do differently?
