Trump has gone loco!!!

It still leaves a cash-strapped business with a loan to repay and no way to be sure when they will have any income. I'd prefer the Government to be putting money into starting and remodelling business. Light the economic fire now with support for new industries.

Small businesses help prop up the economy. They’re finally realising where their bread is buttered. Must be a humbling experience.

All right!!!!🤑🤑🤑🤑
