tweaking the tax system

tweaking the tax sytem to try and get government to encourage business growth. One quote that is particually relavent is "If you pay people to meet set targets, they will hit them regardless of what else you want." which is exactly what is wrong with most central government systems. They have to have targets, so they look for something that can easily be recorded and focus on that. Result they get the statistics they want but the actual service doesn't improve as resources have been focused on that area in order to get the correct statistics.
