jist another force moving money away from prospective small business to the banks.So, in any given year there are startups that will fail before year's end as well as previous year's startups that are in the process of failing. I'm curious to know how this effects the workforce, and how much economic activity is generated in these efforts, as well as debt that is incurred due to these failures. I see these startups as an underreported undercurrent that affects the general economy and employment in a negative way. Or is it a zero sum game?
the good news is that any sucessful small business is a target for merger, acquisition, or private equity dismemberment.
