PLEASE UNLEASH THE AMERICAN ECOMOMIC HERO, AGAIN!

LESSON: We used to understand the American Entrepreneur was the most critical part of building our country and supporting real, hardworking citizens – not the government or large corporations which have become governments! Bring back Ray Kroc before he was a Billionaire!


According to the U.S. Small Business Administration’s Office, America had approximately 36.2 million small businesses as of February 2026. Those businesses represented 99.9% of American businesses, employed approximately 62.3 million people—45.9% of private-sector workers—and generated an estimated 43.5% of U.S. economic activity. Why don’t ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, and CNN interview them nightly? You know why.


Regulatory Capture is the term applied in my books to describe the concept that huge bureaucracies grow to only benefit themselves - the government, federal agencies, large corporations, and everyone else who feeds off the system – not the intended members/citizens who were meant to be protected or benefitted.


The United States, unfortunately, has likely attained the end level which is possibly non-reversible. The Left would like to raise taxes and redistribute and finish the project. The Right spends the same $Trillions and knows someone will have to address the fallout later.


Every Night, David Muir should spend the whole news show lauding entrepreneurs building and saving the country. Someone must have an idea. Someone must find the capital. Someone must sign the lease. Someone must buy the equipment. Someone must convince the first customer. Someone must hire the first employee. And somebody must accept the possibility that the entire thing might fail. Nothing else matters! Everyone else lives off these incredible people!


I have written repeatedly that Assistant U.S. Attorney Brian Samuels has a well-paying job because I built a $billion firm from the dirt. I never needed him, but his job never would have existed unless I paid ridiculous taxes to fund his government salary so he could search and target entrepreneurs to destroy their companies and feed his position. We, as a society, have now accepted this as ordinary behavior. Why is there is no outrage?


If we ever educated educators enough, they would have Atlas Shrugged on the mandatory reading list to rebuild our country. Rearden Metals CEO stated at trial, “I work for nothing but my own profit…I made my money by my own effort, in free exchange and through the voluntary consent of every man I dealt with…I refuse to accept as guilt the fact of my own existence…I refuse to apologize for my ability, my success, or my money”


Celebrate entrepreneurs today! Condemn government and large corporate bureaucracies! Stand up for yourself. Shop locally! Do not rely on others to take care of you and your family! Have a great week!
