It’s true. It isn’t all about size, but size generally gives a good indication of how well taken care of you’ll be. You know. As a customer.

I don’t know about you, but lately I find myself disgusted with “Big” business. Corporate America seems synonymous with greed, and I’m super fucking over it.

It turns out I like my businesses like I like my dick: on the small side — but with a mission-driven owner who’s fair and generous.

At some point, it isn’t even about size. It’s about power.

And with great power comes… well, not great responsibility, apparently.
