As far as I understand it, the business goes bankrupt, not the individual.
In a sole proprietorship, aren't they the same thing? That would only apply if incorporated, which most small businesses aren't.
In that case I think you're right. Quite a few businesses are incorporated though. Especially in the professional services realm where liability is a huge issue.
