The article concerns the effect of the repeal of the "Bush Tax Cuts" on certain small businesses.

For the purposes of this article, most any small business owner affected could have been chosen as an example for the interview,

However...

The author chose the owner of a business engaged in the maintenance and restoration of...
Pipe organs :o :o :o

QuoteWASHINGTON -- Joseph Rotella is president and owner of the Spencer Organ Co., a small business with 10 employees that specializes in rehabilitating pipe organs from churches and communities around the country. The operation does quite well, with roughly $2 million in revenue a year and enough profit to land Rotella squarely in the top tax bracket that benefits most from the Bush tax cuts.

That makes Rotella Exhibit A in a new effort from Rep. Paul Ryan, chairman of the House Budget Committee, to convince voters that in little more than a year, President Barack Obama will oversee a job-killing crush of tax hikes. Over the past week, the Wisconsin Republican has raised the frightening specter that under Obama's tax policies, small-business owners will soon be turning over half of their annual paycheck to the government.

Considering the use of "product placement" as a form of subliminal advertisement in Cinematic work,
there may be a "higher purpose" in this selection... ??? ;) ;D
