Bad Economy Doesn’t Seem To Hurt Beer Companies
In yet another series of positive news for a liquor company/beer manufacturer the trend holds true–the bad economy is increasing liquor sales.
This is a great story about a beer company out of Ireland who aims to bring their brew to Las Vegas. Not sure if folks are drinking their sorrows away during this bad economic time, but for many in the liquor business it equals profits!
Big Government Strikes Again In Financial Industry Overhaul
Today the U.S. Congress passed the most sweeping Financial Overhaul Legislation since the Great Depression!
I believe that we are systematically seeing the destruction of capitalism and free-market in our country. I’ll leave the final decision of this legislation to those on Wall Street, Corporations, and Investors. However, I believe we’ll find this legislation will ultimately lead to more layoffs in the financial industry and less access to American Business for obtaining capital.
In the past 6 months, we have seen now two pieces of Federal Legislation that possess over 2,000 pages. Between the healthcare overhaul and now the new financial industry regulations, our government has never been bigger! If you’re a free market capitalist and you believe in making your own choices then this legislation should scare you!

Lending An Issue For Small Business
Business owners in the U.S. are becoming frustrated with the lack of funds being provided to them from banks. Many of the folks I speak with don’t understand why it was alright to bail-out big business while the little guy continues to go under.
I’ve posted this video from the FOX Business Network that discusses lending to small business in America.

Young Americans and Entrepreneurship
I came across this story in Business Week and it made me think back to my younger days. It’s always been difficult for young Americans to start their own business, and for a variety of reasons. When I was in my late teens and early 20’s, I remember working for my cousin on his landscaping business. My Uncle bought the business for him and sent him out on the road to get new clients. Had my Uncle not invested the capital in starting the business, my cousin would never have been able to grow the business to what it is today.
A few years later, I decided to start my own Car Detailing business. It didn’t take much capital to start, and with the help of friends and family I had an instant clientele. Many entrepreneurs in American history have started with next to nothing. Some had the fortune of inheritance and others the connections to bring in investors.
However, if you read this story you’ll find that in today’s world it is much harder for young people to start their own businesses. With the typical income of someone under 35 in America being $11,800, you can see how massive the challenge is!

Big Business Works To Save Small Business
In the news this week are big companies looking to help spur their business by helping out small business. Home Depot is on the list and the latest is Wal-Mart’s “Sam’s Club”.
With banks holding onto their money, the business industry must start making their own moves. With the federal government looking out for themselves, and most local governments across the country strapped for cash–I believe we’ll be seeing much more of this.

What Federal Stimulus Dollars Did For Small Business
I thought this article in Bloomberg’s Business week was a great example of what some of our Federal Stimulus dollars did for small business. While I didn’t support the bail-outs and still think it was a bad idea to put our country further in debt–here is some testimonials of how some used it to put others back to work.
