FIVE YEARS AFTER THE RECESSION, ONLY 21% OF SMALL BUSINESSES SAY THEY’VE RECOVERED

 The reason for this is simple—small business owners directly feel the impact of federal regulation in the daily life of their businesses. The small business owner is often the main person in a business who bears the burden of complying with regulations and paperwork requirements. According to a 2010 study, small businesses spend $10,585 per employee on regulation, which amounts to 36 percent more per employee than larger companies spend.
