I think it is reasonable for a businessman to know what the rules are for a platform and to have them applied with some consistency.

Yeah. And I think the central question we ask is what is going on hurting the customer?

I think in general it is good to have a conversation between Congress and the industries.

I tend to be very skeptical of that. I think that the government's primary purpose should be to try and ensure a competitive market.

I am pleased to be here to talk about the impact that large Internet companies are having on small business.

Thank you very much Chairwoman Velazquez, Ranking Member Chabot, and members of the Committee.

I think that kind of informal dialogue can accomplish a lot.

But unless there is a demonstrated unfairness in the rules of the market, in which case anti-trust already has the powers to deal with it, the government should leave well enough alone.

The first is that large Internet platforms deliver tremendous benefits to small business.

I think the government should work hard to make sure that it is as easy to start a business as is possible.

Our Federal Government's failure to adequately and proactively address this crisis has had devastating and immediate and long-term impacts which, again, we don't fully understand.
