We at Illinois Review are all about small businesses. We support them, encourage them and even do what we can to build small businesses. So when the Small Business Saturday ads began popping up on Facebook, they drew our attention.
That was until we went to their Facebook page and saw sponsoring American Express' logo for Small Business Saturday -- between the blue font and the symbol at the top of the page, does this remind you of something Obama-esque? And if that's so, it's rather insensitive of American Express because that's a downer for any small business. Each one is the target of Obama/Pelosi/Reid's growing big government mandates, fees, taxes and job draining regulations like Cap and Trade.
AE's concept of Small Business Saturday gets a thumbs up. It's just their logo that gives us the creeps.
Support a small business this weekend. More info at http://smallbusinesssaturday.com/. Tell us which small businesses you recommend.
