There are many questions there, and I think my colleague Mr. Halde will probably want to take some of them.
I think it's hard to generalize with regard to small and large businesses. I found the testimony from the Manufacturers and Exporters and the CFIB on Monday very instructive. They have very, very different stories, and I think that makes sense. Much has to do, not so much with size, although that is a factor, but whether businesses are exposed to the dollar or more reliant on the domestic marketplace.
As you probably recognize, the dollar question is a two-edged sword. In one sense the run-up to the dollar has been happening for several years now. Companies have been able to make adjustments to that run-up, to the extent they can, which positioned them better as the recession hit. On the other hand, of course, it makes imports of machinery, productivity, and efficiency-enhancing capital investments that much easier.
It's not so much a question of big and small as it is where they're placed in the economy.
