A new report by the U.S. Census Bureau states that, for 2006, Non-employer Business Receipts neared $1 trillion.
This data comes from an annual report of nearly 300 industries made up of 18.2 million sole proprietorships, 1.4 million corporations, and 1.2 million partnerships, which comprise the 20.7 million U.S. businesses that have no employees. This is almost 70% of the total number of U.S. businesses.
Not bad for a segment of the business world that receives little acknowledgement or attention from business writers and the general media.
