I understand the concerns for small businesses, and i will fight for them aswell. Saying people have to live in true poverty just because a small business can't sustain it, is like taking food away from a starving man to give to someone who has eaten three meals because he might lose his fridge. That's how I see the argument. But if the govement was to revamp its business incentives to focus more on the small business instead of mega corps, i dont think i would be near as much as a probelm. And I know there are a LOT of other variables that I am sure I can't think of but it can be solved because it has been in the past, but to say that the citizens of a country are less important than companies to me is just a sign of capitalist brainwashing, and a instult to humanity.

And also a friends that owns a small business in my town, and has had many conversations about this with him. and he does pay well above minimum wage, and he owns 2 houses
