There is nothing (nothing) that we could do that would be more pro-small-business (and large business too) in the long term than to establish single-payer universal health care in the USA without soaking the employers to do it. (Yes, that means funded by a combination of taxes and highly-regulated premiums paid by individuals.)

Small employers need workers who are not either scared to death of medical costs (and trying to jump ship to better benefits) or TOO DUMB to know they need insurance.

Matt Bandyk, a reporter for U.S. News, explores capitalism from where it all begins, with the entrepreneur, whose risk taking and experimentation provide the roots from which the rest of the economy grows. As much courage as it takes to create one's own business, even the entrepreneur needs some help, and this blog will look at news, trends, and practical advice for starting and running a small business.
