Small business woes have big inpact on economy...uhh...big business.

You would think big business (more than 500 employees) and small business would have nothing in common. Well, in bad times a guess they do...

"Just ask Wal-Mart Stores Inc., which blamed a pullback in spending by more cautious small business customers shopping at its Sam's Club stores for lower-than-expected December sales figures on Thursday. The surprise shortfall stunned investors in the world's largest retailer, which had been weathering the recession by catering to bargain shoppers."

I love it, Small business shoppers at Sam's Club are "bargain shoppers" not entrepreneurs.
