We really need broad tax avoidance laws that ban any structural or contractual changes made purely for the purposes of tax avoidance. It’s really unfortunate that [GAAR](https://www.icpa.org.uk/news/the-uks-general-anti-avoidance-regulations-gaar/) doesn’t really seem to be used very effectively, and doesn’t apply to VAT regardless.
This is the shit that makes people hate corporations. Just pay your fucking taxes
Hooray for taxis.
Contractors should have a minimum wage of double the minimum wage
The amount of times businesses try and abuse independent contractors, I think we just need a floor to avoid the issues
