Your
Small
Business
Advocate,
You're Not Alone!
It's Our Business,
is
an
association
of
Small
Businesses
in
the
United
States,
founded in
2010, a small business advocate in the common cause of Free
Enterprise.
Small
businesses
employ
about
half
of
U.S.
workers.
Of
116.3
million
non-farm private sector workers in 2005, small firms with
fewer than
500 workers employed 58.6 million and large firms employed
57.7
million. Firms with fewer than 20 employees employeed 21.3
million.
While small firms create 60 to 80 percent of net new jobs,
their share
of employment remains steady since some firms grow into
large firms as
they create new jobs.

So if you are tired of navigation the treacherous icebergs of regultion
How
important are small
businesses to the US economy?
Small firms:
Represent 99.7 percent of all employer firms
Employ about half of all private sector eployees
Pay nearly 45 percentof total U.S. private payroll
Have generated 60 to 80 percent of net new jobs
annually over the last decade
Two-thirds of new employer establishments survive at least two years, 44 percent survive at least four years, and 31 percent survive at least seven years, according to a recent study.

The greatest threat to small business is Government. For instance, the Great Depression of the 1930s, the Savings and Loan Fiasco of the 1980s & 1990s, and the Farm Loan Crash of the 1980s have been attributed to Federal Reserve monetary policy.

It's Our Business Association, Inc. is your small business advocate. The repeal of the Health Care Reform Law, repeal of the Financial Services Regulation Law, the reauthorization of the Bush tax cuts, stopping cap and trade under any name, stopping America's dependence on foreign oil by openning up domestic exploration and the use of nuclear power plants for electricity, are just a few areas where a small business advocate is urgently needed.
Small Businesses must be politically involved with Congress in order to protect themselves from Government interference in the market. As small business owners ourselves, we have been involved in other associations. Most talked about political issues, showed pictures of lobbiest with Congressmen and Senators and associatio executives attended receptions. But, little else was accomplished. In approximately five years we were never ask to contact our elected officials.
