So should I vote against the startup company that many of my friends work at and is funded by millions in VC but has yet to turn a profit in like three years? They's be taxed on gross revenue despite not making a profit, right?

Testify.

@Porno: Did any of the employees go to public school? Do any of them benefit from criminals being in jail? Are they still required to pay the rent and the electricity even though they aren't profitable yet?

You should vote the same way you answer those questions...

Also, isn't that Batman Dance video awesome? YES.
