I strongly disagree with exempting new businesses in the EU from corporate tax for the first three years. This policy would disproportionately benefit wealthy business owners and corporations while depriving governments of essential revenue needed for social programs and public services. Instead, we should focus on ensuring that everyone pays their fair share and that small businesses receive targeted support without undermining our capacity to fund critical societal needs.

I believe it is the responsibility of companies to take care of the payroll taxes. Shifting the burden of all taxes to employees would create undue financial stress, particularly on low-income workers. Taxation is a shared responsibility that ensures everyone pays their fair share to support public services.
