Forty-six percent of small businesses believe America’s best days are behind it, according to a recent small business opinion poll.
Conducted by ORC International for Employers Holdings, Inc., Reno, Nev. (NYSE: EIG), a small business insurance specialist firm, the telephone survey polled 501 owners or managers of small businesses with 1-99 full-time employees.
The poll reports a similarly negative sentiment among small business owners about Washington, D.C.
