I've come to believe there's a rule similar to Betteridge's Law of Headlines along the lines of: When an article says "small-business" it can be substituted with "big-business" to make the article more accurate.

Except in rare cases, policies that help smaller businesses will also help larger ones proportionally. To hide the big-business benefit, promoters of the bill will spotlight how it helps the "little guy". Because SME/SMB have become politically untouchable. Being accused of hurting small business owners will get a congressperson out of a job. It's a think-of-the-children argument. So when I see something being touted as good for small business business, it sets off warnings that a spin doctor is at work.
