This is why there are many small businesses out there. If a worker believes that he can accomplish the whole business process by himself, there is only government stopping him.

You mean like when a would-be small business owner gets a loan from the Small Business Administration? (sba.gov)

That type of "the government stopping him'?

Like that has been particularly easy or helpful for people before they put up significant amounts of their own money.

Yeah, the govt wants people to fail at starting small businesses.

Have you seen the taxes?

Most people from other countries always mention how incredibly easy it is to start and have a business in the US compared to elsewhere, tax- and red-tape wise. There's a pathological strain of faux populist conservatism that likes to rant about "taxes" whether they really are unreasonable, or not.

It is very easy to start it and maintain it - yes, but then a business owner hits a wall of legislature and taxation designed to spread the wealth of old and big corporations.

I guess that's why America is not the #1 economy in the world.

Oh, wait, it is the world's most powerful economy.

So what is this economic hell you're describing again?

Please provide a references to a real world example of this happening where it was entirely governmental regulation that caused a thriving small business to fail and not the whims of the consumer (which would include an enconomic downturn), thanks.

If this happens all the time, then you should have no problem coming up with two or three.
