The answer to this question surprised me, at first. And then I thought about it some, and somehow I was not as surprised as I was originally.

So which is it?

Well, Dennis quotes a recent study posted on the Small Business Administration's site that states that immigrants in the U.S. are 30% more likely to start their own business in comparison to native-born Americans.

It's a good lead in to the document on SBA's site. Definitely take a quick moment to read it.
