Dems New Tax Bill Will Crush Small Business (Guest: Steve Beaman)

Democrat-backed tax hike would fall on more than 62% of America’s small businesses, that’s 8.3 Million Small Businesses nationwide.

At a time when our nation’s small businesses are already struggling to bounce back after 2 years of mandates and lockdowns, the democrats swoop in to save the day with a proposed tax increase that would force businesses to pay a whopping $252 Billion dollars in additional taxes.

“The idea that our economy can withstand the additional pressure from big government directed towards small business is truly an insane notion. Combine this with the fact that the EIDL loan payments for small business start this October so millions of small businesses will be hit with a monthly repayment.  While these are 30 years 3% loans, it still hits the bottom line on cashflow,” Beaman stated.

The proposed tax would affect pass-through businesses, which are not subject to the corporate tax rate. Instead, owners of such businesses claim any profits as income on their individual tax returns. Congress tries to justify this as a tax only on the rich. However the data shows that 64% of small businesses are pass through entities.

Q&A:

  1. How badly do you believe small businesses will be hurt by this bill? Is that statement accurate?
  2. It sounds like it will come down to budget reconciliation with a deadlock vote in Congress. Could this be good news and lead to a possibility of the bill getting revamped to better suit smaller businesses?
  3. Why do you believe there’s so much difficulty preparing a business tax that would affect the wealthy? Congress states this bill would do that, but it seems to be hurting smaller businesses.
  4. Between inflation and what happened with COVID-19, aren’t enough things happening with small businesses already? Don’t you believe that some sort of grant to help them along would benefit them more than a levied tax?
  5. If you had the opportunity to draw up a version of this bill based on this expertise, what direction would you take?
  6. Where may we get more information on what we discussed and your services? Answer: www.ElevareClub.com
