"The World without Small Business"

I realized I should post some more resources for non-Denverites.

The Mile High Business Alliance is a BALLE Network (Business Alliance for Local Living Economies - www.LivingEconomies.org) and is part of a whole relocalization movement (www.relocalize.net)

In the past couple years we've had a handful of other BALLE networks crop up in Colorado: Boulder Going Local, Longmont Small Business Association, Be Local Northern Colorado (Ft. Collins) and LaPlata Organization Cooperative Advocating Local (LOCAL in Durango).

And books.... Micheal Shuman's books _Going Local_ and _The Small-Mart Revolution_

There's a lot of great stuff happening to help tip the scales back from the hands of big business. Come get involved!

There are very good information and advantages you cover in this article. Can anybody know about good ideas of small business???

If I had at least 100k. I would have bought a land long time ago, this land involves a corner of the street. Perfect for any kind of business. That is, unless your business is not a noisy type. -_-

But I loved the location so much I would love nothing more than to claim the location. AGH! Its going to be too late anyway, since there's a company that is planning to do a residential development there. Those lucky bastards.

So, yes, that is a great way to convey that location is a very important factor to any business.
