Here are the first few paragraphs of the article written by The Center Square's Casey Harper:

The Center Square) – An overwhelming majority of small business owners say they are being hurt by rising prices.

The new survey released Wednesday by small business network Alignable shows 86% reporting being hurt by high costs with only 6% saying they are thriving and not struggling.

Alignable surveyed more than 3,000 business owners from mid-April to mid-May and found that they overwhelmingly lament the burden of inflation.

In addition, 79% say that taxes have hurt their business and 76% say “current regulations have also been detrimental” to their businesses.

The poll reported that “86% assert that inflation has hurt their businesses in the past year, with 59% saying the damage has been significant.”

“In particular, many said taxes are just too high, especially since interest rates and inflation have reduced their cash on hand,” Alignable said.

This survey comes on the heels of another recent survey echoing these concerns.

Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act and possibly large companies being called on the carpet for price-gouging - it seems inflation is coming down. Is that helping small businesses?  I'd think so. 

As of today: " US Inflation Rate is at 3.36%, compared to 3.48% last month and 4.93% last year."

Happy Saturday!
