I was willing to play along for a little while until I came across this:

> the small business failure rate is the highest in America at 69%

I then dismissed the entire article as a waste of time. More startups = more failures and that's actually a good thing. If you write something so fundamentally misinformed as if the policies are causing the higher failure rate, then your entire article is most probably bunk and full of similar non-sequitirs.
