Small businesses cannot do the "avoiding" big ones can. The line of reasoning you mention is generally spouted by those who earn or have the most money. I'm not talking about little personal things like ISAs or a few shares. More the Lorraine Kelly or Amazon types of things. |

aka - I go back to what I said before - it would be better if the rules/laws were ideal in the first place.
As they are not, i feel if Martin Lewis can tell me how to do it in 5 minutes it's probably acceptable. If I have to hire a specialist to set it up for me and bend the truth, it's probably morally reprehensible. But PM me if you can help with commission!  |

Isn’t there a line of reasoning that says that reducing tax rates increases tax take.
Depends who you ask RC. For and against arguments here. I think we took more under the reduced figure of 19% than the 28% previous level. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQ2ZUEHBdI0 |

For some reason only (relatively) poor people are supposed to be happy to pay tax!!!!!
They should be grateful they've got jobs! As we were told by our bosses, research shows that being paid more money doesn't motivate you. By contrast, Herzberg set forth his theories on management – and specifically, on the common worker – in 1959. He believed that workers were motivated by anything other than money. He argued against Taylor's money theory as a motivator theory. Herzberg said that workers and employees were motivated by things such as achievement, praise, responsibility and advancement. To get the best out of workers, Herzberg argued, employers and business owners would have cater to these other, intrinsic, motivating factors. Who am I to argue with such an esteemed management theorist but it's funny how only the rich need to be motivated by more money. |

Didn't Henry Ford introduce a ground-breaking wage for his workers? His competitors thought he was crazy but he attracted the best employees and reduced staff turnover.
Also, as a result his aforementioned competitors had to raise their pay rates to remain viable. |

When I go for a pint with ex-colleagues it seems there is a very good living to be made from "employee engagement" - advising employers on how to reduce attrition (staff turnover). Obviously you would need to dress it up a bit more than advising them to "stop paying them £7/hour and treating them like dirt".
One business owner when asked to consider doing employee engagement surveys and exit surveys - said he stopped doing engagement surveys because they were all so rude - and he wasn't interested in hearing the opinions of people that had already left, he just wanted to know how to stop them leaving!  |

There is also far more money that goes unclaimed in state benefits than is lost to fraudulent claims - but it suits the agenda better to make shows/headlines about the fraud.
