Women-owned businesses growing in U.S.

http://web.blogads.com/advertise/liberal_blog_advertising_network

The number of women-owned businesses, many of them one-person enterprises, grew at twice the national rate for all private companies from 1997 to 2002.
About 28 percent of all private companies were owned by women in 2002, according to the report being released Thursday by the Census Bureau.

Not much, but getting closer.
