The problem is you are trying to apply rational logic to this situation.
You believe the propaganda.
Govern-cement is not for little businesses.
It is for big business.
Little businesses are allowed to exist only because if you actually tried to ban them, the propaganda would fail instantly.
Kids in school are programmed to get a job.
They never hear the words entrepreneur.
They are never taught finance or about money.
Big business are given loans at such good rates that they can buy their own stock with them.
Small businesses can't get loans. Loans for startups are done by vulture capitalists at some of the highest interest rates imaginable.
Small businesses are regulated to death. You have to know every govern-cement agency that wants you to file forms and file them all correctly. If you miss one, it is your fault, and a criminally fineable offense. There is no working with small businesses, there is only find their faults and fine them out of existence.
So the local council did exactly what he was supposed to do.
And I hate it! The system is so tainted that it needs to be wiped clean and then start with the premise that we want to encourage small businesses.
You are making a big assumption there.
I should appologize. My statement is most likely factual, but I didn't spell out the propaganda. You are awake to many propagandas.
But, I couldn't make the post you made, even in jest.
The destruction of the small business has been slow and methodical.
Just like the destruction of education.
What this council person did to this child, they do on a regular basis to adults who DARE to create a small business.
So, you wrote a post about how stupid govern-cement is being.
I would have wrote a post about how evil govern-cement is being.
And I mean life destroying, scorched earth, evil.
Lol yes I agree with your sentiment. I foresee a day when all we will have are mega corporations - maybe just Amazon!
