Most of you have probably read or seen reports on the new innovation incubators which provide space for people starting new businesses, provide them with advice, and get them to interact with and help each other.
This is one of the major creative new developments in American history. Of those new small businesses which make a product, some will grow into larger companies, and so replace American jobs which have been exported. There aren't enough of these incubators at the moment, but new ones are being set up every year.
The Obama administration has also stepped in with some changes in regulations to help people develop their new small businesses. For example, banks tend to refuse to lend money to new start-up businesses, which is rather unpatriotic of the banks due to the great value to America that start-up businesses are, and can be in the future.
To help correct that, the Obama administration has changed regulations so that now, small businesses are allowed to raise money directly from the public when banks refuse to help. Since this is beneficial for America, and basically nonpartisan, I would guess that Republicans will continue to allow small businesses to do this when they next come into power.
