Mom-and-Pop Business Bankruptcies Hit a Record as Debts Rise

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

This is not the sign of a booming economy. Americans from all walks of life are taking notice of this. This is why Trump's approval is so low and why an R+10 seat in Tennessee is seemingly competitive today in a special election, despite the Democratic candidate being a far left extremist.

High borrowing costs, cautious consumers and the Trump administration’s trade war are weighing on earnings for the smallest businesses while owners’ optimism fell to a six-month low in October. The number of Subchapter V cases is rising faster than the overall rate for Chapter 11 bankruptcies, which businesses and wealthy individuals typically use to restructure their debts.

Year to date through November, Subchapter V cases increased more than 8% to 2,221, compared to the same period last year, Epiq data show. At the same time, Chapter 11 petitions are up about 1% to a little more than 6,000. Epiq collects information from the federal courts on the various types of bankruptcies filed every day in the US.

We have many family owned businesses thriving in my community.

Where were you in 2020 when the Democrat party called them "non-essential" as their way of waging economic war against the middle class?

 

[citygator]

While Trump’s economy is getting worse not better I’d be very surprised if today’s election is within 5%.

Tariffs are hurting small businesses and the poor/middle class the most. It’s no surprise many are folding.

Well, if Blaster on the internet says so then why would be pay attention to actual bankruptcies?

inherited from the last admin .. but Trump promised he'd make things better .. if he doesn't the party that presided over the highest inflation in decades will win big in the midterms ..

I agree. I don't think Behn is going to win, but it's going to be a lot closer than it should.

One of my duties at the hospital (since I work overnight) is to audit the discharges. Its the worst part of my job; easily.

One of the “big” things that we monitor from an exposure standpoint is when patients go AMA--check themselves out against medical advice. On our campus alone, we’ve had like 100 or so this month. Much higher than it was last December. Part of that is probably people not wanting to be in the hosptial for the holidays. I get that. But it would seem like December every year would be high. Usually there is no change from month to moth but we’ve had an uptick in 2025.

People are scared to lose their jobs or not get paid.

Thats the Biden economy still in effect. Its also democrats refusing to prosecute stealing in their cities.

Democrat governors were the main culprits in closing them down.

Do you have ANY experience running a small business? II have decades of such, myself.

i actually started a local sm biz coalition in my town to address it Taz.........~S~

The difference between now and then is the fact that the government FORCED businesses to shut down during the covid implementation of the Great Reset.

Nonsense. Everyone followed Trump’s CDC recommendations. He oversaw dozens of CDC press conferences and was the ultimate authority in virus response. Biden OPENED the nation in March/April thanks to the vaccines the Trump administration kicked off and supported.

You are full of shit.

Here is a map showing the length and severity of the shutdowns. U.S. state and local government responses to the COVID-19 pandemic - Wikipedia

Honest people are capable of comparing the general trends vis a vis political party of state governors.

You stupid ************. And liar.

That shows the start of the shutdowns which were separated by 3 weeks related to international travel and density. NYC, LA, and Chicago were the earliest affected.

Do you just post random shit or are you this stupid?
