"Promote policies that encourage companies to focus on returning investments back to their consumer, their employees, and to the community.
Lower the barrier to entry for small businesses so that every entrepreneur or emerging growth company can have an opportunity to be successful.
Promote regulations that protect consumers, promote competition and grow the economy.
Support stronger antitrust regulations that break up monopolies and trusts that stifle competition and innovation."
What monopolies and trusts aren't already regulated? These are all just platitudes that makes dumb people say: "Yeah...stick it to the rich!" No details on implementation...all sizzle, no steak. Go look at his web site and his positions: https://betofortexas.com/issue/economy. Compare his platform with that of Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro...not much difference. The result:
These two points are utterly contradictory:
“Lower the barrier to entry for small businesses so that every entrepreneur or emerging growth company can have an opportunity to be successful.
Support stronger antitrust regulations that break up monopolies and trusts that stifle competition and innovation.”
One of the main barriers to entry for smaller business is antitrust. Another is minimum wage, which Bob Frank also supports. Both of these things make it more difficult to create a business and compete with the big guys. I think that’s why Bob Frank supports them.
