If you live in America, what are your thoughts on the polital climate and starting a new business? Do you think it's a good time with the gloabal instability and domestic financial instabilities?

I hope it's okay to respond as a non-American. I live in the UK, but everything that goes on across the pond undoubtedly affects us, too. I believe it's as good a time as any to start a business. Regulations are being overturned and ignored, which means there's less red tape to get through. I believe that US banks are still making loans and the stock market is doing well over there, so yeah, I think it's okay to take the leap.
