In a capitalist society, there is often the existence of inequality and poverty. Therefore, by investing in small businesses, from this stems something called the multiplier effects.
The multiplier effect is a cycle that starts when there is investment. Through small businesses, there are more employment opportunities for persons.
Not only does this mean more income for the country, but it also leads to an increase in the socioeconomic development of a country. Thus, those susceptible to lives of crime and substance abuse will be less inclined to continue this way of life given a more productive lifestyle.

Although we live in a traditionally a male dominated society, today's socioeconomic strata is evolving to include more powerful women such as Cindy Forbes of Manulife Financial.
