Given the specialized niche that social businesses have to occupy according to the FAQs on the sited, I doubt it would have much impact on American poverty overall.

It was The Walrus this time.

I would love to hear Yunus speak. He is someone who truly knows how to encourage the development and growth of small business.

It certainly sounds interesting.
