Provide lower tax rate for small businesses but offer lower taxes for corporations that reduce their profit margins and make goods more affordable.
@9W9QX3V2mos2MO
Raise foe large multinational corporations and elliminate tax deduction loop holes for all, but lower for small businesses.
@9QNG6JR6mos6MO
lower tax on big ethical corporations but not companies like McDonalds or non renewable companies that negatively impact society
@9PMMP3C6mos6MO
Raise, but relative to profit. More brackets are required like in the past where we had 90%. It encourages investment.
@9PFZYV96mos6MO
Keep the same, but eliminate deductions and loop holes as well as prosecuting repeated large corporations not paying their corporation tax
@9PDXN5P7mos7MO
Lower for smaller businesses. Maintain current rates or lower if possible to attract business to the UK. Remove loop holes when possible and simplify the process for clarity.
@9P6LYBD7mos7MO
Any entity, whether company or person, should pay tax on any money earned from this country. For companies, deductions are allowed, but only if the money is being spent to improve infrastructure of the country AND the money is not spend abroad.
@9N86YSY7mos7MO
Maintain in line with comparable countries and allow for targeting windfall or other special taxes, such as those where an industry has substantial externalities.
