Small Business Against Big Government

Small Business Against Big Government

a non-partisan grassroots organization of small business owners and employees

Yes, Big Business Is Over-Regulated, But It’s Also “Under”-Accountable and “Under”-Responsible
The BP Oil Spill prompted brilliant legal theorist Richard Epstein to remind us that the problem isn’t regulation, it’s government limits on liability (see op-ed at the Wall Street Journal). Big Business doesn’t mind regulation, as long as it can put caps on it’s liabilities (see “Too Big to Fail” … ) A tough liability system [...]
The Moocher Index Tracks the Non-Poor that Receive Government Income Transfers
Dan Mitchell at the Cato Institute has put together a Moocher Index to track which states have the largest number of non-poor people receiving welfare. A few quick observations. Why is Vermont (by far) the state with the largest proportion of non-poor people signed up for welfare programs? I have no idea, but maybe [...]
So Why No Economic Recovery? Avaricious Government and Hesitant Entrepreneurs.
The Federal Government’s wasteful spending, institutional meddling, and taxpayer plundering is giving us hesitant entrepreneurs. Robust job growth requires boldness and risk-taking in the private sector. What we have now is boldness and risk-taking in the public sector. It is loading as much debt onto the balance sheet as possible, and creating the [...]

Newsflash

I was talking to a friend yesterday and during the course of our conversation the topic of the House and Senate payroll came up. As a solution I suggested a per diem pay structure for Congress and the Senate. On the surface that sounded like a decent idea to me, but then I let it roll around in my head for a little while............
The major flaw in that idea is that lobbyists and corporations are still going to feed the greedy bastids that continually pass legislation to our detriment as hard-working, producing members of a once great nation.

I am always trying to remind people that the government on all levels (local, state, federal) has no wealth.

This is fact!

The wealth that they accumulate/collect/steal, is OURS, we earned it by producing, delivering, selling, refining products that benefit all of mankind. And yet, we continue to finance these ridiculous social welfare programs and the gluttonous degenerates that deliver them via, taxes, surcharges, regulatory fees, etc.

Why?

There have to be ways to starve the hungry beast that is big government...........

Aren't there?

I realized that in a very very small way that I did just that when I recently purchased goods from a local farmer. Sure, it was a minute amount of money when compared with the trillions being spent currently.
But, what if just 10% of us, that's 10% of the entire United States population did something similar?
That is 10% of just over 300,000,000 people..................30 million great Americans taking even $1.00 worth of taxes out of the mouth of big government. Lets say we are each only able to find some way to excercise that free market experiment once each week.........that calculates as $30,000,000.00/week times 52 weeks=$1,560,000,000.00 per year.

That is a substantial amount of money!
Heck, that might even be enough to starve out one or two useless social programs.
I realize that some people will say I am crazy and that it just can't be done.

Why not?

I would think that such an intelligent group of people could come up with hundreds of ways to cut off just small amounts of our funding to the Federal and State governments.

One thing is certain. We can no longer look to our elected officials to look out for our best interests (if we ever could). To make matters worse, there are not enough conservatives in the Senate or the House to lodge a successful filibuster of the inevitable onslaught of more liberal social welfare programs.

Any ideas?
