Former Democrat Senator Blanche Lincoln " I think that everybody has come to realize how important small business is and job creation in this country. Two third of the net new jobs that are created in this country are created by small businesses. 50% of our GDP, and you know, it's unbelievable the number of regulations, the sheer volume and the complexity. Over 4200 new pending regulations now. Staggering it is,, it's stifling."
