Christy Mihos addresses small business leaders in Waltham

"Entrepreneur With A Political Vision" discusses ways to improve climate for Massachusetts small businesses


   Businessman, entrepreneur and candidate for governor Christy Mihos of West Yarmouth (right) greets Ed Ostrowski, Chairman of the Smaller Business Association of New England (SBANE) and CEO of GoldStar Advisory Services of Hingham, at SBANE’s Massachusetts Breakfast Series. 

Recently, Christy Mihos, owner of Christy’s of Cape Cod Corp., was featured speaker at the  Smaller Business Association of New England (SBANE)'s Massachusetts Breakfast Series event held at the Westin Hotel in Waltham.  Speaking before a large crowd of Massachusetts small business owners and managers, Mihos addressed the extraordinary challenges facing small business during this economic downturn, and discussed ways the government could help create a climate that is more favorable to small business.  

Mihos is running for governor in 2010, and is vowing to use his business experience to implement policies that would help small businesses grow and prosper in the Bay State.  SBANE, headquartered in Waltham, hosts monthly breakfast meetings throughout the six New England states.  The events provide attendees an opportunity to network with peers and gain insights and sound advice on current topics of concern for small business owners, entrepreneurs and their advisors.

I haven't always agreed with you, Christy, but good luck in your run for governor. Promise to repeal the coming increases in taxes and start reducing the huge number of patronage jobs in this state and you'll have my vote and I'm sure, many others.

Great job, Christy!
You have my vote.
One thing you could do for small business is eliminate the minimum corporate tax, which applies even when the corporation suffers a loss. It's a kick in the teeth for struggling small businesses. Not even the ravenous IRS tries to levy tax upon a year with losses, but the DOR is another story.
Keep at it Mr. Mihos! Bipartisan politics will save us.
