who earned more than 500,000 in New York got hit badly though but those are usually the elitist democrats who like paying taxes anyway.
Are your sure that Wall Street (in the midwest) did not make out like bandits?
They do whatever it takes to stay in office... and Main Street America does not have a strong presence on K street.
The thread is a question not something to be agreed with.
Small businesses make up: 99.7 percent of U.S. employer firms, 64 percent of net new private-sector jobs, 49.2 percent of private-sector employment, 42.9 percent of private-sector payroll, 46 percent of private-sector output, 43 percent of high-tech employment, 98 percent of firms exporting goods, etc, etc. Major corporations have no problems coping with Federal regulations and taxes... whereas these severely inhibit investment and growth of smaller companies. Unfortunately, our elected officials and central government bureaucrats do not differentiate because small businesses have no lobbying clout in DC.

There is a reason that they big boys took everything over in a glutinous feast. They get more than just bulk rate purchasing. They get to buy their healthcare more cheaply because of an artificial employee number requirement for discount, they get tax breaks, and the get favorable regulations so that smaller businesses can’t provide competition.
And what's worse is that our major corporations are entirely global in their outlook and don't give a tinker's damn about the American worker.
