Stay Informed!

I can't stress how stongly I feel about staying on top of current politics, and this election is such a turning point in all of our lives (just as any is I'd imagine).

The NFIB and SBA have their own opinions, as do many politicians and actual entrepreneurs. Here are links to a couple articles I found interesting...

This could be the most important election ever. It seems that everyone wants to start their own thing now, and I think that is great.
