Not everyone has the nuts to step out and start their own website for degenerate sports fans.

Deregulation and falling tax rates? The Supreme commander has regulated businesses to their literal death and corporate tax rates in the US are among the highest in the free world.

It's a mix. We are not less regulated but tax rates have been fairly low.

Millennials are lazy fucks who always had their parents to do shit for them. Of course they gravitate to the corporate teet.
HR can be their safe place.

This is a comparison to the United States of 30 years ago, not other countries of today. And that doesn't even address the fact that it's fucking retarded to try to use statutory tax rates in any meaningful discussion about taxes. Large corporations paid an effective tax rate of 12.6% in 2010. But why use context when you have bullet points.Southerndawg said:

Economic deregulation over the last thirty years is not in question, it's a clearly observed trend that isn't being debated by anyone (besides you, apparently). The libertarian think tank Cato Institute sure doesn't have any problems acknowledging this fact.RaceBannon said:It's a mix. We are not less regulated but tax rates have been fairly low.

There was such an expansion of start ups in the 80s and 90s for various reasons. Cyclically, there will be ups and downs. It's not a millennial thing, Obama thing, or regulations thing.GreenRiverGatorz said:I won't lie, these statistics take me by surprise. Even with several decades of deregulation and falling tax rates, the percentage of Americans starting their own business has been steadily falling. What's causing this? I blame a combination of a millennial generation that has no interest in risking their own skin to start a business, and the rise of mega-conglomerations that are constantly merging with one another and offering perks and benefits that are too enticing to pass up for the would-be entrepreneur. I don't know if it's necessarily a bad thing that start-ups are declining, but it's an interesting phenomenon nonetheless.

I'm not sure I buy that. Business cycles typically last less than a decade. This is a three-decade decline we're witnessing. That's a long-term economic trend you can't really ignore.2001400ex said:

So are you saying that if I can't handle the ups and downs of the number of new start up businesses from year to year, I may be on the wrong board?2001400ex said:
