Former Small Business Administration head Linda McMahon is expressing concerns about the potential impact on small businesses under a Harris-Walz administration. McMahon highlights the positive business climate that existed during the Trump administration, with lower regulations, lower taxes, and high levels of optimism among small businesses. She emphasizes the importance of a vibrant small business community for a thriving economy.
McMahon criticizes the Biden-Harris administration for increasing regulations and taxes, which she believes has led to a decrease in optimism levels. She dismisses Harris’ focus on corporations and price gouging as the reason for the economic slump, instead placing the blame on the policies of the current administration. McMahon fears that a Harris-Walz administration would bring even more regulations and taxes.
The former administrator specifically points to Minnesota Governor Tim Walz’s record, highlighting his state’s high corporate tax rate. She argues that such policies discourage small businesses from growing and investing in their businesses. McMahon emphasizes the importance of creating an environment that fosters enthusiasm and growth for small businesses.
McMahon also criticizes Vice President Kamala Harris for attempting to distance herself from the economic policies of the Biden administration. She argues that Harris has supported these policies in interviews over the past three years. McMahon questions how supportive these policies are of American workers when wages do not keep up with inflation, which she believes is a result of the administration’s policies.
In this economic environment, McMahon suggests that workers will struggle to get ahead, leading to the need for second jobs or seniors taking on employment to make ends meet. She concludes by emphasizing the importance of supporting small businesses and American workers for the growth and prosperity of the economy.
