Encourage Small Business Growth!

From "Suggestions to stimulate economic recovery for Bermudians once Shelter in Place ends"

Go to the project

Small businesses contribute to local economies by bringing growth and innovation to the community in which the business is established. Small businesses also help stimulate economic growth by providing employment opportunities to people who may not be employable by larger entities.

Small businesses are the lifeblood of the U.S. economy: they create two-thirds of net new jobs and drive U.S. innovation and competitiveness. A new report shows that they account for 44 percent of U.S. economic activity.

Start with the elimination of the onerous and longwinded process currently in place that kills most small businesses, locally, before they start; the permission to purchase and license a commercial vehicle!

Not all businesses can be in the virtual realm, most trades and skills require the transportation of labor and goods to a customer not the other way around, let persons be able to earn without hinderance!

      The more people doing what they like to do and are good at what they do and are collecting full payment for the work they completed. Are much happier people. Work harder and do better work. We are all good at something just got to find what it is. I still want to do a silver factory where locals can sell there ware
