Because sadly no matter who is in charge - the small businesses will not get what they need. Banks were taken care of in 2008/2009. Small businesses need bailed out and honestly I watched 3 of my friends who own small businesses reach out to PNC and not even remotely get a call back. Multiple emails/calls/etc - ignored. Bigger companies were taken care of first.
Now look.. i'm not ignoring the other side, either. There are businesses out there who were failing due to poor management/service/etc. and they WILL take advantage of things. But I do not see enough help for these places to stay alive.
And I know what you are thinking. It's simple, right? Just give these people money. Obviously it isn't. They need strong regulations on who has access to this money and it needs to be well thought out to hit the businesses who need it. But this is where realism hits. I don't see it on the horizon and it disappoints me greatly. And if it does hit, it will be taken HUGE advantage of. Because what we see even with stuff like unemployment and everything else - if there is an exploitation, it will be exploited.
This is where I just beg beg beg people to get together and make this happen. But then the next question that
@Snooki Stackhouse brings up is valid - how long does this run for? Honestly? That's a tough question.
