Us here at 2417 are working on developing not just an idea but a movement. We are a group of small business owners that have had to cut corners anyway we could in order to make our business work and after a long discussion with more and more business owners we see that we have all violated one thing or another that either a local, state, or government had set in place. It is absolutely disgusting how much red tape you have to clear in order to get a business up and running. The next absolute headache is the hiring process and what all is needed in order to get them up to code. There is so much that has to be done in order to just get to where you can finally start working on your business itself. These blockades that they are putting in place have shot down who knows how many individuals. The fact that you have to pay so much out of pocket before you even get started with your business is the reason we see so few businesses starting up. Small businesses are a true backbone to the American way and make this country what it is yet if you don’t have the capital to pay for all the transactions and licensing and building code improvements as well as all the other expenses that will nickel and dime your business to death. It’s time that we collaborate with each other to find shortcuts and get the message out that things need to drastically change if we wish to create jobs and bring the country’s economic powerhouse back online. If you have anything you wish to share we would love to hear from you. Even if you have some negative things to say we don’t care because we know we can’t be right all the time and an open forum is the way to progress forward.
