I wonder why Greene king want to tax profits? It’s because they don’t make any.
Nope, you chose to expand beyond what you can handle. Tax the wealth, if you can’t afford to run your pubs give them back to the people and pay less tax that way.
Right, and part of the problem is these hawks (the kind who own 2400 pubs) would then fly in with that much more VC$ and scoop up 5x that amount if something like this passed(which is of course why they’re the ones suggesting it). I’m all for the idea, but big companies don’t get little guy breaks for the 1-2 pub proprietor, they can play with the adults and take the loss with that kind of operation and revenue. If their business model is literally “we can’t turn a profit–we’ll make it up in volume” they have issues that shouldn’t necessitate corporate welfare.
