The simple fact is that a small business here in America is purely American. This might seem obvious, but larger companies, even ones that you think of as American, are "multinational", which simply means they prefer not to pay taxes or use U.S. sources for materials or labor. Virtually all American small businesses hire Americans, spends their money here and it pay their taxes here. The profits stay here, helping to grow our economy. They support other local businesses as well as the government. Small business grows America.
Big corporations can channel their profits overseas, where tax rates are lower. You can't blame them; the U.S. effective corporate tax rate is the second highest in the world!
Small businesses have no such option, they must pay the higher U.S. corporate tax rate.
