Geez talk about cart before the horse. Blinkered you sure are. So how are the tax payers going to pay tax or be burdened with the cost to bail business out if there is no business and therefore no salary to tax? Which is the chicken and which is the egg? You will probably suggest the government can employ everybody because all they have to do is print some paper and call it money. I think the communists tried that but it didn't work so well. I don't know which planet you live on but the tax office don't give money to new businesses, they are a collector. If you're so concerned about business greed, do something about it instead of whinge and cry about anyone else making a dollar. Start your own business and employ anyone you like and pay them what you want. Oh by the way in your view of business you can't pay yourself more than your lowest paid employee or claim any deductions or expenses such as power, water, telephones, internet, advertising, materials, rent, etc, as you would then have deemed yourself greedy and a burden on the taxpayer. Good luck with your business and shortly thereafter enjoy the dole for which I will continue to subsidise for you.

I was just responding to a blanket statement made by one of the poster’s

If it wasn't for business owners risking their money to run the business you wouldn't need to worry about wage increases you wouldn't have a job.

All I was saying is that it’s either being narrowed minded or intentionally taking advantage of a situation due to selfishness.

I responded to you with the following comments:

In theory if u believe that u have started a viable business then taxpayers shouldn’t be burden, by contributing subsidies to your business in any form of deductions or incentives.

I’m the old feudal days when the Lord of the Land knew that you produced 10 bags of wheat and he demand 3 bags. He didn’t consider whether you had to buy a plough etc.

If you wished to develop you business further, it was upto you to achieve sufficient margin from the remaining 7 bags to expand your business.

Now that is taking the risk in your own venture!

So it is also in the interest of the taxpayer’s that your business is successful.

So there’re two parties who are taking the risk in ur venture, yourself and taxpayers.
It therefore also gives u and ur family members jobs beside your employees’.

I just get cheezed off with business people always claiming that they’re the ones taking all the risks

A simple question for you is "would you start a business under the old feudal system these days"?
