Never, but under some administrations, Presidents understood the difficulties. Obama's plans will make small business ownership more difficult, to a point where I say the rewards won't be worth the risk. A small business owner may work his ass off for a decade or more investing in the future and then have a few good years, Obama/Biden have no appreciation of the effort and say things like its patriotic to pay more, and paying more is not going to hurt because you are "rich". Then they trot out the richest man in the world, who is already rich and manages his tax burden, to say "rich" people should pay more, as if that is validation for his plan. They want to raise income taxes, increase our costs, put more burdens on us,and then raise capital gains taxes. Certainly non-small business owners don't care, until economic growth comes to a stop.
