Small Businesses Say Trump Is Wrong

One (more) of the way this country is split is a sharp divide between what small businesses need and what the giant, multinational corporations want (and usually get.) According to a coalition representing small businesses, Donald Trump's policies would widen this divide, hitting small businesses hard. Small businesses around the country are squeezed by the giant WalMarts and other national billionaire-owned chains that put local businesses out of business, pay low wages and few if any benefits, and then drain local and national resources by exporting their profits from the communities and states to offshore tax havens to dodge taxes. The Main Street Alliance is a national network of state-based small business coalitions working with "real small business owners, on the ground, in their shops and restaurants." They issued a statement warning that Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's prescription for America is wrong for the small businesses that speak for.
