Congressman Joe Walsh vs Tammy Duckworth: Small Business Perspective

Due to the high volume of reporters who have contacted us in the last 24 hours, we thought we would just respond with the following statements.

First, we would like to thank both Tammy Duckworth and Congressman Joe Walsh for attending and mentioning our round table discussions held at our restaurant, Chicago Prime Steakhouse in Schaumburg, Il, last evening during their spirited debate. My father George Kalkounos and I appreciate your friendship, and both of you along with all of your supporters are always welcome to our restaurant.

Allow me to preface my comments by sharing that I do not have a political axe to grind. I am not speaking as a partisan, I am simply speaking as a businessman, and concerned citizen who has a business to protect, a wonderful family to provide for and a hard-working staff to answer to.

The idea of health benefits for employees is a significant consideration that we take seriously. Based purely as a business owner, the AHCA would impose a significant added expense without contributing any added revenue. Plainly speaking the Affordable Health Care Act, as I understand it to be written, is NOT affordable to this small business. The math is simple, these new rules are creating costs for businesses like our own who already struggle in this economy and we have to treat it as any other expense and attempt to curtail it as much as possible. I can say that I am assuaged by the fact that both Ms. Duckworth and Mr. Walsh agree that our restaurant will suffer under the new changes implemented by the AHCA and they both want to do something about it. It is of great concern that government is imposing a penalty on businesses that may not be able to afford health care. It burdens entrepreneurs like us that take the risk of leveraging assets and sacrifice time away from their families to create, open and operate a successful business in today’s climate. The AHCA as written goes against supporting our business growth. As it relates to AHCA, you ask me if my business is better off before it or after, the answer is obviously before.

Respectfully,
Andy-John G. Kalkounos

Ryder Cup Chicago: Where did it All Begin?

The Ryder Cup Matches has been around since the early 1920s when it was still an unofficial friendly match between Europe and America. The Ryder Cup Matches became official in 1927 when the match was held in Worchester, Massachusetts and since that time every two years a new match takes place with America and Europe alternating as host of the championship match. The Ryder Cup got its name from Samuel Ryder, a golf enthusiast and promoter who sponsored the first match and donated the first Ruder Cup. Like the 2012 Ryder Cup Chicago, the matches in years past have always been a defining championship in the golf world and the championship holds its place at the most important team competition in the world.
