I always wonder if the cost of complying with new regulations is contemplated. If I think of how long our family take just to do stupid and inane administrative tasks (VAT, Union payments, tax, unemployment insurance, etc…). All this administration is really hampering small businesses.

Why aren’t these regulations simplified? Why aren’t employees paid on a cost to company” basis and are responsible for their own administration (i.e. own union payments, own unemployment insurance, own health insurance, etc…).

Maybe it is just because I hate admin – but I doubt that admin should take up 40% of a small business owner’s time.
