*Proposes patent system reform that would ensure less stifling of innovation across industries [http://feelthebern.org/bernie-sanders-on-small-business-and-entrepreneurship/ (FTBBE)]
*VISA reform to allow highly-skilled foreign workers to stay and work in the United States [http://feelthebern.org/bernie-sanders-on-small-business-and-entrepreneurship/ (FTBBE)]
*"And in my view what we need to do is create millions of jobs by rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure; raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour; pay equity for women workers; and our disastrous trade policies, which have cost us millions of jobs."

===Wall Street===
*Too big to fail, Too big to Exist Act which would break up big banks and prohibit organizations that are too large from accessing using uninsured deposits for risky activities [https://berniesanders.com/issues/reforming-wall-street/ (BSWWS)]
*Wants to end subsidies to big business and end offshore tax havens [http://feelthebern.org/bernie-sanders-on-corporate-regulation/ (FTBCR)]
*End subsidies to large corporations and make sure they pay the full corporate tax [http://feelthebern.org/bernie-sanders-on-corporate-regulation/ (FTBCR)]
*"Check the record. In the 1990s — and all due respect — in the 1990s, when I had the Republican leadership and Wall Street spending billions of dollars in lobbying, when the Clinton administration, when Alan Greenspan said, "what a great idea it would be to allow these huge banks to merge," Bernie Sanders fought them, and helped lead the opposition to deregulation."
