Small businesses already bear a disproportionate share of regulatory costs and suffer more than large competitors when corruption distorts local markets. This situation will soon get worse: looming federal health care as well as environmental and financial mandates will push vast new oversight responsibilities into the states--and onto businesses' backs. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAmy H. Handlin applies her 20 years' experience in state government and politics to provide this practical, results-oriented guide that teaches how to successfully navigate the jungle of overlapping federal, state, and municipal rules--skills that will become more essential as regulations balloon. Readers will learn how government works, get insight into the mindset of bureaucrats and politicians, and discover specific, nuts-and-bolts strategies for dealing with even the most unwelcoming, recalcitrant, or even dishonest officials.","brand":"Praeger","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45084023521431,"sku":"9780313392597","price":4492.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780313392597.webp?v=1767264260","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/government-grief-how-to-help-your-small-business-survive-mindless-regulation-political-corruption-and-red-tape-9780313392597","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
