The Small Business Administration processed 57% fewer loans last quarter than it did a year ago.
As a business owner I can tell you straight up the vast majority of politicians and citizens alike know nothing about running a small business.
It's like me telling BMW how to engineer their cars.

Sad, sad, sad.

Other than making low-interest loans more available, I don't know what else the government could do to help a small business like mine.

Not in favor of no taxes, or even less taxes. I just favor a shift away from income and sales based taxes.
