Recessions tend to push people into entrepreneurship. Those who might never consider starting a business will do so if they can’t get a job.

As our economy gets stronger, a smaller percentage of the population is starting businesses, according to the Kauffman Foundation’s Index of Entrepreneurial Activity, released a few days ago. Last year, .28% of American adults started their own businesses each month, compared to .30% in 2012.
