Is This Situation The Product Of Sane minds?

From: Janet Berry, Barfield, Hambleton. Yorks Post.
A BUSINESSMAN points out that his business turned over £90,000 of which generated £60,000 in VAT, £50,000 in PAYE and £37,000 in corporation tax earning £147,000 in taxes for the government.
He personally earned £72,000 for working 70 to 80 hours weekly with two weeks holiday. He questions whether he should carry on working so that the state can get twice as much as he does especially when they can arbitrarily change the pension rules.
Hardly fair is it? I think many people in business are asking the same question.
