i think its well understood that people prefer small biz to big corporations. if thats true, we should ask how do we want to encourage small biz?

And the us should follow a country that is 1.5% it’s size. Try fair comparisons.
what are you talking about?

my post is about who is increasingly controlling the US economy, and the public that has to live with the decisions of this foreign minority.

i dont know about you but im in favor of local ownership of the economy and spreading out that ownership to as many people as possible (im guessing).

i was thinking in the capitalist model you have fewer people taking on risk and reward in terms of ownership. so its a more risky system for those few. if things go bad for this minority, im assuming its gonna be harder for them and lead to more mental breakdown then it would if you spread the risk and reward cooperatively.

Except for the quality and price and then they prefer corporations.
i still prefer small biz over even smaller cooperatives.

i think what ever consumers save with big corporations they lose more with destruction of small biz and taking money out of the economy.
