According to a survey by the National Federation of Independent Business, optimism among small-business owners reached a record high in August as the country began to see the rewards of Republican-passed tax cuts and deregulation.

National Review reports The NFIB Small Business Optimism Index was the highest it’s been in the index’s 45-year history.

Former President Obama claimed in a speech on Friday that he should be given the credit for the strong economy.

Kevin Hassett, Chair of the Council of Economic Advisers, shot down Obama’s claim, pointing out the economy took a positive turn after the 2016 election.
