Video Marathon: How Big Government Hurts Small Business | Marathons

We have so many 5-Minute videos about the damage done by big government that we had to split the playlist into two! (Be sure to catch Part 2 on Sunday.)

No small business should pay for the bureaucratic inconsistencies of these government departments.

[ghostsofwargow]

This guy has so many valid points, anyone who disagrees is brainwashed or just straight up ignorant. Good video PragerU, keep exposing these major troubles in our country, and the troublemakers too.

These videos are so simple, but not simple enough for politicians.

Understand this! They hate small business and they hate you!

[hleedina]

Amen...even in FL, as a cake maker, I have a whole binder full of laws and regulations I have to keep up with to the point that I have not been able to seriously hire anybody because of the cost also associated with each regulation...we are still a small business. I think there should be a difference between small, medium, something else before large, and large business and the regulations should go accordingly. We do far, even in red states have the exact same regulations as medium, to large businesses.

I love these long videos. Helps when I'm busy doing chores.

Government hurts franchise owner aswell

I own a small business too and I live next-door to Michael Clayton‘s mother-in-law who plays football who is also a Super Bowl superstar and his wife is a doctor and I am questioning why they receive stimulus checks and I didn’t. I had to run my business off my retirement money are they were trying to destroy the middleman. Why do NFL stars who live in $14 million mansions had five children that go to the most prestigious school in Central Florida $100, 000 a kid every year ..Driving Bentley‘s Receiving a stimulus check every time. While small business owners like me didn’t get jack shit. Is it because I’m white?

Unfortunately these bureaucrats, like anyone else with a job, need to show a constant stream of productivity to keep their jobs. No one is going to want to pay someone who comes to work every day, but does nothing but sit around biting their nails. If they want to continue to hold their jobs, they need to show that they are working on something new and getting things done constantly. If what they “do” is regulate things, they need to have a constant stream of new regulations to appear to be always busy and productive, so those who employ them will not be able to dispute the necessity of their employment. The result is they regulate everything to death.

It's time small businesses go underground!!

[chadhouser]

I own a construction business and electrical business. I have been a licensed general contractor for 24 years and began doing electrical 12 years ago and instead of doing better from the time being in business, I instead am just floating along in this economy. I can’t get anyone to work and the subcontractors that I use are far behind because of the same thing. America is no longer the land of opportunity!!! What a shame. I used to have 7 employees and now I have 2 and I work 60-80 hours a week. I see all these people driving supercars and own big houses making money on YouTube and here I am killing myself at 44 years old for a barely decent living while they make millions. It’s backwards now. No longer does hard work and determination get you anywhere. FJB!!!

The bigger the government the smaller the people. Big government by the government, of the government, and for the government.

I'm about to have this video ready for Thanksgiving. This should come in hand quite often!

The first and biggest problem is our taxation of productivity and our failure to tax land values as the classical liberals had advocated. Big business is horribly land-inefficient, and is profitable mostly because they have monopolized the best land. This is true of farming, of industry, and of commerce. Everything else pales by comparison.

Successful terrorist attacks are good adverts for small and constitutionally limited governments. After they happen the inevitable investigation that takes place reveals that different parts of the state knew different things about the plot but didn't tell other parts of the government because if departmental politics and empire building on the part if those in leadership roles. 9/11 is a prime example because after the attack took place it became known the CIA knew some of the details, the FBI knew other details, the NSA knew other things, etc but kept it to themselves because they made it hard to get their intelligence. This resulted in thousands of lives lost and families destroyed and a country forever changed. If the agencies were smaller and had to work with each other then things like this would not be as great an issue.

[jennifere.]

wow. that AG and FDA door regulations situation is pretty upsetting. just wow.

[Aurik-Kal-Durin]

Those inspectors were on a power trip. Their lives are so sad and miserable that they have to boss other people around just so they don't feel completely worthless.

[stevebird]

At least in the Service industry it's fairly easy to run under the Radar. Getting paid cash for services rendered is hard to track. I don't want to say what I do, but I'm not a

The bigger the government, the better for the government, and the worse it is for everyone else.

[psivast]

Big government politicians just make things more complicated and bloated. I liked the Trump administration's idea of putting the tax form on a small card. Brilliant!
