"We are wildly overtaxed and over-regulated," he said. "You take all the risk, and you get very little of the upside. Any policies from D.C. have just ended up as a disaster for small businesses." Ultimately, it will have to "end abruptly," he said, as most Americans do not see these problems or get involved in the process.
