The Key to a Healthy Economy
More than 70 percent of voters surveyed say the health of the economy depends on the success of entrepreneurs, and a full 80 percent want to see the government use its resources to actively encourage entrepreneurship in America, according to a study released last week by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation.
In a survey of 816 registered voters, more than half of respondents said they trusted small businesses to save the economy, the Kansas City, Missouri-based entrepreneurial research group reported last week. Comparatively, only 14 percent said they felt Congress was up to the job.

Quote of the Month
"Throughout history, people have focused too little on the opportunities that problems present. The 21st century offers great hope and glorious promise, perhaps a new golden age of opportunity."
