Numbers do not lie. If we werre going by media one would think it would be South Africa or Nigeria or Kenya. Food for thought. Economies grow by small businesses not large corporations. USA/Brazil are a testimony to this fact. one of your articles said that small businesses make up more than 90% of US businesses.
