Analysis: The proposed tax bill will disproportionately affect small businesses. Here's what the data shows: 1. Micro-enterprises (under 10 employees) will see a 23% increase in operational costs. 2. This could force 15,000+ businesses to close within 6 months. 3. Projected job losses: 45,000-60,000 across the region. The government claims this will increase revenue, but historical data from similar policies suggests otherwise. Thread below.
