Anon 4:49, watch the video. Some rules never change and some realities don't wait on anything, as a matter of fact most don't. The fear mongering about "not knowing the rules" is getting a bit threadbare for me.
Have you ever talked to a small business owner? There is a difference in a business that operates for profit and one that depends on the generosity of the public to survive.
For profit and non profit orgs share much in common in terms of expansion or contraction. Even in non profit world, orgs that engage in social enterprise face these same decisions. If demand for your products/services are trending up, consider hiring. If not, cut back. The current supposed link betw tax policy at the top and new jobs at bottom is largely bogus, as history clearly reveals.

No. Not really. Small businesses hire on the potential for future business, initially. Then they hire based upon existing market demand and potential future demand. Non profits can both begin and continue without the prospect of any demand, if donors or the govt. can be persuaded to give money. Sometimes the argument used to persuade donors is demand (need). Other times there isn't much real need for non profits, at all. Consider the art projects that sponsored by non profit organizations. Or public policy non profits that are merely lobbies for special interest groups.

Business will not be inspired until they know what the rules will be.

A small business must know if he will be able to hire or not.

LJ, your clearly is anything but clear
Liberals are clearly unclear. For example,Obama extended the Bush "tax cuts" although he insisted that was the problem in the first place.
Obama in 2010:
"Raising taxes will lead to more people potentially losing jobs."
