Hirschbiel Announces Plan to Grow our Small Businesses
“America was built on the backs of small businesses”
Virginia Beach, VA- Today, Virginia Beach businessman and community leader Paul Hirschbiel announced his plans to help grow small businesses in our community. His small business plan covers a wide range of issues including, increasing access to capital, creating certainty in the marketplace, and loosening regulation to support crowd funding.
“America was built on the backs of small businesses, and today small businesses are still at the heart of the America workforce,” said Paul Hirschbiel. “As a lifelong businessman who has helped start small businesses across the country, including right here in Hampton Roads, I know the important role that entrepreneurs play in our communities. However, as our economy slowed, small businesses were the ones hurt most. We need a renewed focus on supporting their entrepreneurial spirit by creating certainly in the marketplace and providing the access to capital that is critical to their success.”
Highlights of Paul’s Small Business Plan:
-Balance our Budgets
-Create a Balanced Tax System
-Create Tax-Preferred Small Business Savings Accounts
-Support the Start Up 2.0 Act
-Provide High-Tech Tax Credits
-Ease Regulations to Encourage Crowd Funding
