The first is this: If you think small business is good, but big business is bad, then aren't you saying that you want small businesses to do ok, but not really well? Most Big corporations were once small.

Secondly, have you ever tried to use only goods and services provided by small businesses?

-Fly to chine using only "small business" airlines
-use a "small business" cell phone provider
-buy "small business" shoes
-drive a "small business" car
-...using "small business" gasoline importers and refiners
etc etc etc.

Bad companies are bad, good companies are good...be it big or small. There are all kinds of things that small business just can't do efficiently.

I have always thought it would be a good plan if the lowest paid empolyee were paid 10% of what the hightest person in the company gets. Think about this if your companies highest paid person gets 8 million a year what would you get if you were the lowest paid?

If I were to burn some cash (as in light it on fire), where would the value of that cash go? What if I burned/destroyed a huge amount of cash? Would remaining cash increase in value (supply decrease)? Would non-cash monies change in value?

The U.S. has been conducting a "demand-side" war on drugs for decades.
Some results:
1) Narcotics traffic into the U.S. has increased during this time.
2) Federal and state tax commitments for the policing and incarceration of non-violent drug offenders have skyrocketed.
3) In some recent instances, e.g. fentanyl-laced heroin, kids choosing to experiment are DYING because they are at the mercy of criminal vendors, i.e. no quality-control of sold chemicals.

If the costs and results of this program were audited within any for-profit corporation, the board of directors would have fired the management years ago. In the least, investors would have screamed to halt the program or cut off its funding in light of the lack of success.

What would be the likely costs and effects of removing the profit-motive for the traffickers by legalizing, taxing, and providing oversight for some of the less harmful street-drugs (turn them into standard commodities subject to free-market economics)?

I have a continuous variable that I want to normalize across 4 categorical variables. This is not normalizing in the sense that making it have more like a normal distribution. Rather, it is to "clean" from effects not due to an observation's membership in that category.

It would save about 250 Billion. With said Billions one could easily fund medicare for the whole nation AND have enough left over to
a) start paying off the national debt
b) give aid to third world countries. Not in the form of direct money, but in the form of helping them to become self-sufficient.

The U.S. military still would be the mightiest on earth and perhaps would have less reason to flex its muscle constantly (if you spend 500 Billion on the military you better use it, otherwise how the hell do you justify it ?)
