Commentary: It is Time to Fight for the Rights of Independent Businesses

Admin

As a very young man, I was fortunate enough to start my own company out of my apartment using a small amount of investment capital from friends and family. Over time, that business grew to have over 6,000 employees and revenues in excess of $2 billion.
