I get what you’re saying, but there’s more nuance here. The smaller the business is, the likelier it is to fold within 1-1.5 years if a major compromise. I’m asserting that in the back of some FBI statistics published about BECs awhile back.
I would posit that your first list needs a conditional for “too big to fail”.
Did you mean to reply to another comment? I don’t see the correlation between your comment and mine. I didn’t assert the US was small business friendly, just that smaller businesses are much more at risk than it seemed the parent comment acknowledged.
Which I think is an important point because by volume the majority of businesses in the US are small and mid-sized businesses.
