Thanks for posting it. I hope that people will see the wisdom - unchecked competition is destroying small business in this country.

I love pieces like yours that illustrate the absuridity of the other side's position by going them one better. I plan to talk up the Living Profit wherever I can.

I believe that the actual figures are something like 90% of all businesses fail within the first 5 years.  Of these, around 90% fail because of lack of forethought and planning.

So, if you do your planning properly, you actually have a 90% chance of success.

So how wise is his redistributionist policy?  Not very.  The problem isn't unchecked competition, but rather unchecked protectionism.
