You couldn't be more wrong here. Even if the small business owner doesn't ever decide to expand he will still have more money and therefore be spending more. The more money that is spent the more jobs that are required to make the goods and perform the services being purchased. No matter how you cut it, unless the person is stuffing money under his bed never to see daylight again, more money = more jobs.
Also, please keep in mind that sometimes in order to make more money you need to employ more people. Whether it be a web designer, tax accountant, or even the UPS man.
