Im no economist myself (never took an economics or finance class before) but your idea actually makes sense unlike what the government is doing at the moment.

Dave,
Would take it into consideration. I will write a more detailed post about what we do and such and the environment.

More detail on your family’s business would be interesting, Alex. E.g., does it do most of its business in Southern California? California entered a recession before the rest of the country and its economy is worse off than most other states.

Also, is your company in need of working capital? Has it had difficulty borrowing in this environment?

Your family business is an area where you have expert information. There’s an old saying, “write about what you know”. You should take advantage of this and offer thoughts from a small businessman’s perspective.
