...what's the answer?

" 20% of small businesses fail in their first year, 30% of small business fail in their second year, and 50% of small businesses fail after five years in business. Finally, 70% of small business owners fail in their 10th year in business. "

……………

" We need to move to a human-centered capitalism, where the market serves us instead of the other way around. That starts by investing $1,000 per month in every adult so that we can build a trickle-up economy, as I have proposed, with the proper measurements and incentives. "


...giving every adult a $1000 a month to throw down another capitalist rathole will not solve our problem...when

"...70% of small business owners fail in their 10th year in business. "

...no, we need to CONTROL AI, automation and out-sourcing...that means a strong government with resources to do the job...


...would you depend on or trust a surgeon, a lawyer, an auto mechanic, a plumber, a meat slicer at Walmart, that failed most of the time?

...I wouldn't...

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
