    The United States government is the largest buyer of a wide variety of goods and services in the entire world. According to Ransom (2014), The U.S. government spends approximately $500 billion a year contracting goods and services for civilian employees and our military, including things as simple as office supplies like staplers to more essential items such as bulletproof vests and military clothing and materials, even janitorial services. Small businesses in America help to provide a sizeable amount of these purchases with assistance of the Small Business Administration (SBA).

    Poverty has been a persistent feature of the Jamaican landscape from the post- Emancipation period, and it is a subject of continuing concern and analysis for Caribbean academics and welfare practitioners (Anderson, 2001). According to Ben Henry, Managing Director of Customer Service Academy of Jamaica; attitude to work is a major cause of poverty in Jamaica. In his article entitled “Attitude To Work A Major Cause Of Poverty In Jamaica” published in the Jamaican Sunday Gleaner on April 1, 2012, Mr Henry argues that if Jamaicans would extend the same effort used in preparing for a party, to the work that enables them to pay the bills and send their children to school, then the country would become the Singapore of the Western Hemisphere.
