If small business issues were my only voting issue I think I would go,with Cruz. He promises radical change and has a track record of trying to deliver big. He would and could basically end Obamacare regulations by executive order. He won't back a minimum wage raise. He is for a flat tax and less regulation. If you're a company that enjoys substantial tax breaks or who competes with foreign companies, he may not be best as he promises to be a free trader who will close loopholes in the tax code.
Maybe small business people would fare better if the system wasn't rigged so that the wealthy and big corps get the most subsidies.
Have you sought out a cost recovery consultant? There are several firms that do this around the U.S. Many will evaluate for free and/or guarantee a recovery large enough to cover their fees. I've worked with a company out of Michigan called Growth Managment Group, but there are others if you research. They can help in the insurance, workers comp, equipment, R&D and many other local and state business incentive programs. You may find its a free opportunity to look over your accounting and see if there aren't options where the polititions have looked out for you already but you just aren't plugged into the program.
