Very important. Small business is the heart of our economy. What could be more optimistic for anyone to do but to follow their dreams, start a small business, create jobs, create wealth, create capital. It is so important. We see the importance of that to the tune of about a trillion dollars, just under a trillion dollars, in these past several months.

They are at risk of losing their jobs.…”
