Chart of the Day

Jared Bernstein, via Mark Thoma:


While small businesses may create most of the new jobs, they also shed many jobs, because small businesses fail much of the time.  It is untrue to say that most people work for small businesses, though, even though the spokesman for the NFIB did recently claim that.  It is unfortunate that Republicans hide behind small businesses in trying to cut taxes for the wealthiest people in the country.  Keep this graph in mind next time you hear Republicans talking about small businesses.
