Abigail and Dolley readers there is a lot of talk about getting the economic engine of America running again. We have all sorts of government programs and they will all fall flat and cost us a fortune for little or no return. The economic engine of this country has been and will always be small business. There are millions of Americans out of work right now and I can tell you what they are thinking - how do I make a living now? Many will start or have started a small business.
What is the biggest impediment to small business? Regulation and red tape. We must remove these impediments to get the economy rolling again. We must make it simple for the guy that knows how to fix engines, to fix engines. We must make it easier for business to get patents to protect their inventions. We must make it so the small business person can get a loan to start their business. We need government to get the hell out of our way so we can make it. We must rethink the way we've always done things. We must look for new processes, innovations, and technologies. There is no shortage of entrepreneurs but there is an overabundance of bureaucrats. What we are trying to right now is dig out of is an environment that hampers the great American Spirit.
As for me and my family, we are going to make it happen for ourselves and in the process, we are going to live the American Dream. May God Bless you and may God Bless America.
