Call for greater investment in small entrepreneurs

December 28, 2002 By admin

Chuck Hassebrook, executive director of the Center for Rural Affairs, saysstates need to start investing more in the small-sized entrepreneurs whopopulate rural America. Hassebrook says states spend millions on taxincentives to lure corporations to create jobs, but spend very little, ifany, on the small businesses that have been the backbone of the ruraleconomy. Hassebrook says for every dollar invested in corporate development,there should be 20 or 30 cents invested in entrepreneurial development.Hassebrook made his comments during taping of “Iowa Press,” an Iowa PublicTelevision program that’ll air January 3rd.
