One thing I hate about the ''big versus small'' businesses stuff.

The interests of large and small businesses coincide more than they oppose each other.

The National Federation of Independent Business and the US Chamber of Commerce are on the same side of most policy issues.

Small businesses owners & corporate CEOs or investors alike are more likely to be Republicans.

All of capitalist industry, big and small, are on the same side.

Small businesses play a crucial role in maintaining expoitation and putting a friendly face upon grievous injustice.

This is also a contradiction.

Small businesses help broaden support for injustice as well as the conservative political preferences of capital, but at the same time, the destruction of small businesses is (to some degree) necessary for the furtherance of profit.

The continual advance of capitalist profit must eventually cannibalize the structures holding the capitalist economy together.

The large owners of capital themselves are numerically small, relatively speaking.

The owners of small capital (small business) number in the millions and often provide a broad enough support base for regressive policies such as low levels of taxation and lack of paid leave.
