    Okay, so what do these results tell us, exactly? That there are Americans in this sample who like “small business” more than “big business,” what does that do?

      People’s attitudes towards a particular word.

      If that word loses negative connotation, that’s incredibly telling (for lots of rhetorical and sociopolitical reasons). To be clear, the survey says nothing about the meaning of that word or what it refers to.
