The Entrepreneur Spirit Is Alive And Well

As this blog has attempted to demonstrate over this past year, our country faces many complex and challenging problems.
I've been accused of being too critical at times, but my response has been that I'm just presenting a realistic analysis of the problems out there. It is my strong belief that if we are going to move forward, it will be led by the small businesses of America.

I had the opportunity to attend "The New California Hall of Fame Celebration" last night. This annual event was hosted by Golden Capital Venture Funds and recognizes business leaders in the Great Central Valley of California. These top 100 companies generate more than $50 billion annually in revenue and employ more than 250,000 people.

It is often said that the foundation of our country is made up of small businesses. This was very apparent at this event. While some of the names are very recognizable, most are not household names. But that doesn't take away from the great things that these companies are doing.

The entrepreneur spirit helped build our country. This event demonstrated that the entrepreneur spirit is still alive and well. If the government can stop itself from interfering, there is hope for the country.
