There was a thread on this then it disappeared. So round 2.
Who is the best for small business?
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/2016-presidential-candidate-best-small-134524783.html
Jeb Bush
Governor Bush has been claiming that his comprehensive tax plan would specifically benefit small businesses. However, the plan has also taken some heat about a provision that would no longer allow small businesses to deduct interest payments.
Ben Carson
Without any background in politics, Carson is hoping to appeal to voters who are fed up with the political system. Aside from the general Republican platform, Carson recently specifically addressed small business. “One of the real strengths of America in the past has been mom and pop and anybody who, on the basis of their talent, was able to expand as far as they want to go. Now, they can only expand up to 50 employees before they have significant consequences. That’s no good,” Carson said in reference to the Affordable Care Act.
Hillary Clinton
Clinton recently released her four-point plan for stimulating small businesses, which includes reducing taxes, cutting red tape, expanding capital access, and opening up new market access. Clinton also recently came out in favor of a $12/hr federal minimum wage.
Ted Cruz
Cruz, who is widely known for his radical 2013 proposal to abolish the IRS and implement a flat tax, has also spoken out recently in favor of small business. “We need to empower small business owners and entrepreneurs. Through lower taxes, less onerous regulations, and greater competition, we will unleash their ability to be an engine for growth and innovation,” he says on his website.
Marco Rubio
Senator Rubio recently spelled out his approach to small business. “If we reform our tax code, reduce regulations, control spending, modernize our immigration laws, and repeal and replace Obamacare, the American people will create millions of better-paying modern jobs,” he said in a speech.
Rubio has served on the Senate Small Business and Entrepreneurship Committee since 2010 and has introduced bills to expand small business tax breaks, reduce regulatory fundraising constraints and permit the recruitment of foreign workers.
Bernie Sanders
Sanders supported the Small Business Jobs Act, which granted small businesses access to low interest loans, provided support for small community banks and provided $12 billion in small business tax relief during the aftermath of the Financial Crisis. Sanders, a self-proclaimed socialist, also supports a $15 federal minimum wage.
The Winner
In the end, it is up to each individual small business owner to choose the presidential candidate that he or she believes will represent small businesses best in the White House. So in choosing the best small business candidate, why not look to the business owners themselves?
A recent Manta poll of 815 small business owners revealed that Donald Trump is the top choice among all candidates by a wide margin. Trump polled at 38% among small business owners, ahead of Hillary Clinton (17%), Jeb Bush (6%) and Marco Rubio (6%).
(Note how Trump wins by not putting out a specific plan?)
