It is almost impossible for an average person in Europe to start a small business, due to punitive taxation and regulation. If Democrats had their way, they would construct the same system. Americans have a higher percentage of people who own their own businesses than any place in the world. Higher taxes and regulations would decrease, not increase, that number.</p> Most small business people are solidly Republican.
