Almost half of all Americans in the workforce are employed by small businesses. The false dichotomy between the interests of the individual worker and the massive, faceless corporation on the other hand is not tremendously helpful in this context.

I have nothing against small businesses, even if they're incorporated. I was a small business, in one of my careers. What I find disgusting is bailing out the wealthy, while barely helping the working class.

I don't think anyone taking the money will be doing any stock buybacks
