Oh hey!

 

I knew that if I just ignored
your ignorance of my actual original post you'd get back on topic of the OP the fact that my topic title and OP were false and misleading I could somehow steer the debate in a different direction
.  

 

Let's take it one issue at a time...

 

Since it's my thread, I'll choose the issue that you brought up to discuss:

 

I'm gonna start with the second point you brought up:  

 

"He is proposing regulatory relief for small businesses.  That's a good thing since small business is a huge factor in our economy." (Quoted from JIB's post)

 

I expect you to answer this specific point before we move on to the next point.  If you try to deflect from this point I will point it out and expect you to either respond with a logical reason for it, or concede and move on to the next point that I get to choose from the list you provided.  (Of course you can ignore all this an start another thread to moderate your own positions, but I would consider that a punk move if you just run away from this discussion).

 

So here we go:

 

Your statement (as a reminder)  He is proposing regulatory relief for small businesses.  That's a good thing since small business is a huge factor in our economy.

 

My response:

What regulatory relief for small businesses do you think will help small business?  Is there a specific regulation that kills small businesses from being successfull?  If so, which one is it that trump is planning on repealing? 

 

Now, I know you think us liberals don't know anything about business...  But as someone within the industry of legislation and state and federal taxation, I will submit to you that there is no regulation that hinders small business more than the Conned-servative business plan that focuses on oligopolies.  

 

For instance, if you allow large businesses that have a high market share within an industry to merge, you are excluding small business from entering the market. That's the law of economy of scale.  So actually, the better thing to do would be to uphold regulations like anti-trust acts and make sure monopolies and oligopolies are not created.

 

Do you think that there is a specific liberal law that destroys small business?  If so, please inform me.  Otherwise, you must concede that small business are not hindered by regulations other than the deregulation that has allowed for markets to be controlled by monopolies and oligopolies.
