Over here, companies are ' milked' left right and centre by the government, VAT, PAYE, NI, Council rates, extremely high taxation on fuel, rapid increasing insurance due to compensation culture......it all adds up to ' skint' small businesses like mine, and what do the government give us in return for all our hard earned money? Sweet f##k all !
In this country we are taxed on our earnings, if we choose to save we are then taxed on the interest of our savings, if we choose to spend we are then taxed when we buy goods, eventualy when we die, we are then taxed on what we give our relations loved ones.
My question is when are they going to tax us for the air that we breathe?????

An average of two posts a day, hardly a gigantic amount
Some sort of moron
555wrx, it's called competition. Why do you think that inflation is so low and 'white' goods amongst a whole host of products are cheaper than they were several years ago. Sad that your business is not as good as it was, but market forces for you. If you think taxes and government red tape are bad in this country try opening up your business in France.
Why don't you relocate to China and build your product out there, better still do what many companies do, outsource all the manufacturing to China and retain your brand name here. Think you'll find it's not as hard as it would first appear.
If you start going down trade restrictions route, you'll be left with higher priced goods and possibly sanctions from other countries, among other things.
Two sure things in life, you'll die and you'll be taxed.

I mentioned before that people who had over 10,000 posts must have an internet tan. 2 posts a day is hardly taking the edge off of a dull and insignificant life, nothing will ever change that
