In case you were too busy running your business last night to tune into the first presidential debate in Denver, here’s a recap: both candidates talked about their support for cutting taxes for small businesses in some way, but they sparred over what is actually considered a small business.
“All the corner shops in our towns and cities, the restaurants, cleaners, gyms, hair salons, hardware stores — these didn’t come out of nowhere,” Ryan said. “If small business people say they made it on their own, all they are saying is that nobody else worked seven days a week in their place. Nobody showed up in their place to open the door at five in the morning, nobody did their thinking and worrying and sweating for them.”
