Memo To D.C. Policymakers: Small Business Loves Big Tech (From RealClearMarkets)

There is a myth, growing in popularity, especially in Washington, D.C., that large technology companies somehow prosper at the expense of small businesses. The reality is far different, as seen from a recent survey by the Small Business & Entrepreneurship Council (SBE Council) and other evidence.

Regardless, some in the political class and special-interest, high-priced, Washington-based attorneys thrive on stoking these divisions. That is nothing new as the politics of envy has perennially fueled ambitious political attacks.

The danger now is that protracted litigation against America’s most innovative companies could derail our thriving culture of innovation.

Lexington Senior Fellow Paul Steidler discusses this further in an Op-Ed in RealClearMarkets here.
