Overview “The essence of the American economic system of private enterprise is free competition.

The preservation and expansion of such competition is basic not only to the economic well-being but to the security of this Nation. Such security and well-being cannot be realized

unless the actual and potential capacity of small business is encouraged and developed.” - Small Business Act
