I am starting a sole proprietorship and was interested to hear about how the stimulus plan would assist small business. Small Business actually employs about half of all workers in the US today.

From a TV interview. (I couldn't make this stuff up)

QUESTIONER: What I’m looking for are real clear details about how is the stimulus package really going to help small businesses.

JOE BIDEN: Well, there’s a number of ways. It depends on what your business is. I would recommend that woman call my office directly and I will be able to guide her as to what pieces of this package would be directly helpful to her. For example, it may very well be that she is in a circumstance where she is not able…her customers aren’t able to get to her. There’s no transit capability. The bridge going across the crick to get to her business needs repair. It may very well be that she is in a position where she is unable to access her energy costs are so high by providing smart meters by being able to bring down the cost of her work force through the cost of operating her business…
