Each and every year the us govenrment grants help thousands of people to start businesses of their own. Why would the government do such a thing? Well that is a very good question to ask indeed.

The answer may surprise you. The government figures that if they help people like you and me start businesses then a lot of that money will return to them in the form of taxes. Not only income tax but also other federal taxes that are paid each year by thousands of businesses throught out the country.

The government wants you to be successful in your business because you will purchase many things and will also hir employees. This is very good for them because they get tax revenue from your employees too. From the taxes that are paid by your employees from their wages.

Really there is a trickel down effect going on. The government gives you the money then you hire workers and make certain taxable purchases and this really is supposed to help the entire economy. So, it is money that they figure is well spent or given away so that their investment in you and your business will return to them many times in future revenue.
