So, you've noticed your morning coffee has gone up a quarter? It's not just because the bean harvest was bad this year; it's part of a larger story about how small businesses are getting crushed by Biden-era inflation policies.

Small business owners have to deal with rising costs on both sides: materials and labor. These increases are happening faster than their revenue can grow, and guess what? That means profits are shrinking like an overripe banana left out in the sun.

I'm talking about stuff you've heard before—the government says inflation is 'transitory' or whatever—but it's a lie. Inflation isn't transitory for the small business owner who just got slapped with a 25% price hike from their supplier, and they can’t pass that cost along to customers without losing them.

Let me break this down: Small businesses are the backbone of our economy. They're not getting any help from Biden’s policies which have pushed up prices across the board. These folks were already struggling before 2021, and now they’re being hit with price shocks that aren't going away anytime soon.

Nobody is going to tell you this on CNN or Fox News. I've been watching this for years, and it’s clear we're in a vicious cycle where the economy's health depends on small businesses staying strong. And now they can barely keep their doors open.

The real figure here isn’t what you see in the headlines; it’s buried deep down in the footnotes of government reports. Inflation is eating away at the very heart of our economic engine, and nobody wants to admit it.

So who benefits from all this? Big corporations with the resources to weather the storm. They can absorb price increases and still make a profit. But small businesses don't have that luxury. They're the ones getting hammered while everyone else pretends everything is fine.

If you think about it, it's almost like someone designed these policies knowing they would hurt small business owners. And who are those guys at the top of this pyramid scheme? You guessed it—big banks and big businesses who thrive on uncertainty.

So what can you do to protect yourself? Keep a close eye on your expenses, diversify your income streams if possible, and don't take anything the government says about inflation at face value. If they say 'transitory,' that's code for 'we’re going to tell you whatever we think will make us look good.'

This isn’t just some rant from a guy in his diner booth; it’s reality as lived by millions of small business owners across America.
