This book exposes how the Small Business Administration (SBA) and the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB), using erroneous data, have developed and perpetuated the belief that "small business creates all the new jobs". It shows further that, since the early 1990s, this belief has become a mantra for allowing the SBA and NBIF to lobby effectively for preferential treatment such as low-interest loans and exemption from mandated employee benefits and worker safety regulations.

The Job-Generation Controversy shows precisely how anyone -- economists, policymakers, and the general public -- can fall victim to statistical fallacy and improperly manipulated data. Sometimes, as this book highlights, the consequences can be serious for millions of Americans.
For more than twenty years, the Small Business Administration (SBA) and the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB), using erroneous data, have developed and perpetuated the belief that "Small business creates all the new jobs". Since the early 1990s, this belief has become a mantra allowing the SBA and NFIB to lobby effectively, under the law, for preferential treatment such as low-interest loans and exemption from mandated employee benefits and worker safety regulations. However, as this book shows, while small businesses have created some new jobs, big businesses, those with more than 500 employees, remain the primary source of job generation in the United States.
