Terri is concerned that most business groups and political parties claim to support small business but end up listening to big business that has the money to lobby them.

Small business is the engine that drives innovation and that keeps the economy ticking over regardless of the macro economic circumstances. Governments spend billions of dollars trying to keep big business operating here instead of moving off shore only to see those billions, and the billions of dollars of profit those companies subsequently make, go to international investors and tax havens.

In the meantime, small business keeps producing the money that keeps the local economy going. Small business is also a member of the community, employs locals and nurtures the community in which it operates.
