I hope you see the distinction between percentage of closely held companies, which IS 90% according to several news sources, but it, indeed, a very small percentage when you're talking number of workers, not number of companies. It takes a lot of small companies to equal one big company. I hope that clears that issue up. Thank you.

The Mountaineer - Would you happen to recall what those news sources are? I have read and heard more than enough from all sort of media and news outlets, but have not heard that %age tossed about and would like to follow that up. Might you also recall if those news sources also indicated whether those companies were closely held only by family with expressed strong religious convictions? Thanx.
