ibc are not allowed to increase or decrease it beyond the limits. —— obviously you are not...eight zero it makes a big difference because there is a lot of manoeuvre within the eu to standardise certain taxes. and this is one of these taxes. and this is one of these taxes they're trying to standardise across the eu so that you can try to have more equal competition between countries. you can't have a super low vat country and then another one that has been in the single market because elements of the single market are being retained in northern ireland in order to keep for goods and trade with minimal friction between the south in the north. that means you could have a sort of east—west down the irish sea vat border and that becomes a issue with businesses being competitive with businesses being competitive with one another if those vat covers we re with one another if those vat covers were to be slashed. and that will happen. well, and i suppose the theory of that happening is what could... could meet resistance from the dv which is why northern ireland is being treated diffe

companies on the planet which is the business round table and the business council, the international ibcd economic forum all say the same thing, which is we need to value all stakeholders and all shareholders when i say stakeholders, what do i mean our employees, our customers, our partners but i am from san francisco. we have a horrible homeless problem there. the homeless are a stake daholdr for me that's why i was fighting for proposition "c," a tax on ourself. we have to deal with the homeless situation in situation. as the largest employer in san francisco, i'm not focussed on that, if they aren't one of my key stake daholders, what is >> if your orientation is just about making money, you're not going to hang out long as the ceo or founder of the company. if not, then what? your board fires you your sales drop? what is the consequence of running afoul? >> you can see that in my industry which is for ceos who do not take this approach. they are really at risk and they can be extremely vulnerable especially during economic times that become turbulent. i gave that statement at techcru
