   Fortunately the 2 Washington State senators were co-sponsors of the amendment to add the SBA related items to the Small Business Lending bill. So we're covered for support here. I've been watching Senate coverage all day. Wish they'd get to voting!

   Chris,
   Thanks for the heads up. I just e-mailed to our senators. I have excellent credit and always on time…If I could recast my debt, I could cut my finance costs dramatically and put my dollars in to growing my business.
   Pleas advise me if this bill comes through.

   Thanks,
   Ira

   Hello Chris:

   Thank you for the heads up. Knock theirs socks off! More power to you. I am one small business owner that have struggled for the past 3-4 years. And without private investors, I would still be kissing ass in corporate America. I ventured out on my own back in 2006, and I was very happy about the decision up until I found out that banking on "The Old System" to work, that's when creditors and lenders and governments used to care about the future of small business owners, and their business ventures, but I came to realize I was dead wrong believing in the old system (or the way it used to be). I came to realized that they (i.e., creditors, lenders, and bureaucrats) are all out for themselves. They pay no mind to the little people like me. I'm originally from the Philippines, female, over 40, and have been a law abiding citizen for more than three decades and I tell you there is not one program that can help me out there - so I am told over and over again. However, they advertise all these breaks for minorities, females, and the likes of these things, but in reality it's all for them. Talk about selfish politicians and bureaucrats ~ hate to write this one, bud ~ but Congress is sure full of them.

    Leo - I don't know of any online sites. Sorry. And yes, theoretically you could buy an SBA foreclosure and put your business operations into that commercial property. You'd only get financing on the new purchase price, not any "embedded equity" you may have gotten by getting a "good deal." Hope that helps some.

    I am a small business owner and have left a voice mail message. Like many small business owners, obtaining capital for expansion has been difficult and this administration seems to want to give everyone special programs, money, and support except for the small business owner. Hopefully this nightmarish administration will end very soon and fellow republicans take back the government.
