I was simply pointing out that if you pass some sort of legislation that outlawed private business you would have a chilling effect on small business growth. I'm not sure if the poster had this in mind, but I'm pretty sure that such leglislation would be tremendously stupid. I like diversity. I like a system that allows private and public business to both exist and would hate to see laws to restrict the existence of either one. If you want a private business, start one. If you want a co-op, start one. Why shouldn't people be free to start whatever form of business they want?
