There is no financing for the smallest businesses, which we had available in the 80s I could get loans for almost any of my clients if they had a little money or collateral. Today, you have to do an IPO which costs an arm and a leg or get loans from private sources. Or "kickstarter".

I do think it was a good move by the SEC to allow stock to be issued through online operations. I think it does have the possibility of providing financing but is likely to bring about some people throwing money at really, really crappy ideas.
