Man kills himself over Obama winning the election. He blames Obama no his business going under. Maybe he should look at the nature of his business: he owned a tanning salon in one of the sunniest places in the nation.
Not sure what to think about this; kinda good, kinda bad.
I have a great deal of sympathy even if I think he was tragically misguided and not in his right mind. My business has been suffering over the course of the last decade and the constant struggle to keep things afloat had taken their toll. That, with my wife's medical bills and my inability to sell my old home have put me in a bind financially. But for my wife's emotional support I might not be here now. If he was brainwashed by a constant stream of right wing hate only adds to the tragedy.
Yeah, I know. The truth is, it's almost impossible for a small business to succeed anymore but big corporations are labeled 'too big to fail.' So, yeah, he has some legitimate complaints towards the government and, yeah, Obama deserves some of that blame, but if you think for a second that Romney is going to help you at all, you are delusional.
