Congress has, today, refused to provide bail-out funds to CIT (not the
same as CITI), a provider of "bridge" financing for small
businesses... franchisees of Dairy Queen for instance.

Wonder if it has anything to do with small businesses are _rarely_
ever unionized ???

Democrats are such dirt bags.

They'll take a dump behind your couch and then feign ignorance

No one gives a s**t about small businesses any more. Republicans may
give you more lip service, but when it comes time to make choices between
you and the folks who are writing them Really Big Checks, just guess
where the votes go?

Never mind that big business is where innovation goes to die, that most
jobs are created by small businesses, that small businesses are the way
that poor folk can pull themselves up by their bootstraps, etc., etc.,
etc.

Not at all. The various progressives' campaigns against Wal-Mart are
largely motivated by what those stores do to local commerce.

In the meantime, there are rumors from the White House of a new initiative
to use TARP funds to expand small business loans.

In stark contrast, the Small Business Administration itself barely
survived being put on the chopping block by the 1996 republican-controlled
Congress, and then the Bush administration's repeated cuts and expenditure
freezes.
