Ah. There you go. I thought you would change your story. NFIB, not the National Federation of Small Business. A totally different organization. So, you assume I am a moron because I used the name you provided me?? And now you change the name of the organization??? Right.
So who is the NFIB?
NFIB Exposed: 'Voice Of Small Business' Is A Front, Group ChargesThe same group that exposed the previously little-known American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) as a dominant force advancing corporate interests at the state level has now turned its sights on exposing the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB).
NFIB is hardly operating in near-secrecy, like ALEC was. The organization, which describes itself as "the voice of small business," was the lead plaintiff in the ultimately unsuccessful lawsuit against the Affordable Care Act, taking it to the Supreme Court.
The left-leaning Center for Media and Democracy has posted on NFIBexposed.org, its new website, a study that reveals how consistently the NFIB lobbies on issues that favor large corporate interests rather than small-business interests; its thoroughly partisan agenda; and the millions it receives in secret contributions from groups associated with Karl Rove and the Koch Brothers.
The NFIBexposed.org website, however, chronicles how 98 percent of NFIB's campaign contributions so far in the 2012 election cycle have gone to Republicans, and how 100 percent of its advertising budget supported either Republicans or opposed Democrats.
Wikipedia says: The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) is a conservative lobbying organization
The expenditures of NFIB were as follows:
Independent Expenditures: $3,395,315
For Democrats: $3,018
Against Democrats: $1,171,075
For Republicans: $2,405,841
Against Republicans: $0

Great. All experts in research should use completely partisan sources for their information. But, of course, another real problem is that the survey does not list regulations as the primary concern for small business. their survey is a lot more subjective in it's issues.
Who they have donated money to is really irrelevant to me or to the discussion at hand. Explain why they are wrong to suggest that Government Regulation is not a concern among it's members. Any other response will simply be ignored. I am not entertaining your fallacies.

And, where is the related study showing regulations cause economic downturns??? You know, the one you do not feel needs a link. Here is a news flash, flash. You really do need to provide a link. Though I am sure you will not, because you can not.
thought so. does not exist.
No where was it stated that Government Regulation causes economic downturns.
