I always envied them, the owners of the cars with the white plates who can be seen around Jerusalem. I always wanted to be one of them. We call them U.N., even though U.N. are generally foreign correspondents with leased cars and yellow plates.
Rather than saying that the commissioner is hired by the owners and therefore is subservient to them, you have to look at whether or not the players are getting a fair shake.

Small business owners are fighting every day to create and innovate, but continue to face government barriers to job creation.
The fact that these owners sacked me doesn’t mean that our relationship is broken. I still get on well with Florentino, and although I haven’t spoken much with Abramovich since I left Chelsea, I have no problem with him.
Many small business owners want to pass their family legacy on to their kids and grandkids, but they are turned over to vulture funds because the family may be asset rich but lacks the cash to pay the estate taxes. I have met people who literally sold the farm to pay the taxes.
Most small-business owners will tell you they don’t want Obama ‘boosting’ them. They just want him to get out of the way.
Homes make patriots. He who has sat by his own fireside with wife and children will defend it. Few men have been patriotic enough to shoulder a musket in defense of a boarding house. The prosperity and glory of our country depend upon the number of people who are the owners of homes.
I’m a capitalist but one who is smallist and localist, and who favours businesses where owners are still in charge.
At a time when the United States is handing out tax breaks to corporations that ship jobs overseas, corporate jet owners, and millionaires and billionaires, it is ludicrous that we would even be looking at Social Security and Medicare as a solution to our debt crisis.
Joe Biden’s nomination of gun-grabber David Chipman, who wants to ban, confiscate, and destroy the most popular self-defense and hunting rifle in America owned by millions of American patriots, is a clear indication that the ATF’s war on gun owners is just beginning and is about to crank up.
I can’t imagine an argument that says that raising marginal tax rates on high income people, many of whom are business owners, is a recipe for economic growth.
The real mechanism for corporate governance is the active involvement of the owners.
The National Multifamily Housing Council, a trade association of apartment owners, managers, developers and lenders, has come to the defense of the interest deduction and other provisions favorable to the real estate industry, describing them as ‘core principles’ and promising a fight.

A factory-installed security measure – one that phone owners would have to opt out of, rather than opting in – could automatically render purloined devices inoperable on any network, anywhere in the world. No resale value, no thefts.
Everyone at Michael Waltrip Racing is working hard to deliver great results to our owners, employees and sponsors. All organizations have a lot at stake each week as we are all measured by our performance and finishing position.

There are more dog owners in America than there are conservatives.
Good owners aren’t buying franchises because they think it’s a good economic deal. They’re buying franchises because they’re a huge fan of the sport and they want to be a steward of that team. If they just do it because of a good economic deal, they’re going to be bad owners.
It’s not good if owners of sports teams are talking to sports journalists, bypassing the manager. That goes in the wrong direction wherever it happens. Therefore, I’ll refrain from doing this at all.
We have been fighting for solutions that will spur economic growth and create jobs for all Americans because we have been listening to what small business owners and employees have been telling us all along.

The glorified will not be pilgrims, transient visitors, or tenants at will, but settled, permanent, walled, established by title, through eternity by warrantee deed, signed, sealed, recorded, possession given. No renters, no lessees of Heaven, but all property and home owners.
If you’ve got a classic car look back in your log book and see if any of the previous owners will be happy to give you photos of the car in its heyday. You’ll find that more often than not they’ll be happy to share memories of it and it’ll make it more appealing to potential buyers.
It’s funny, I feel like dogs take after their owners and certain mannerisms and the energy that they have.
It is my hope that by reducing the tax burden on small business owners that we can help them grow their businesses and, in doing so, create jobs.
Perhaps the biggest problem in journalism is the cult divide between journalists and corporate owners.
I love small-business owners, and I actually love the idea of vintage clothing, but I don’t get when they pretend that the Internet doesn’t exist or that other customers have never been to the whole rest of the country where you can rummage around and buy the same dang belt for a buck and a half.
Not a single federal dollar should be used for states or cities efforts to target law-abiding gun owners.
Every human on the planet is descended from both slaves and slave owners. What makes Britain unusual is not that we engaged in the disgusting trade, but that we eliminated it. Our political institutions led us, earlier than many, to the conclusion that freedom was the highest virtue.

Owners need to know, you can’t play ball in this heat with your pet.
