Reasons to vote Tory - Business Tax

I continue the search for positive reasons to vote Tory, and not just out of my dislike for New Labour, a good enough reason to vote Tory that is in itself right now. The opportunity for tax cuts will be limited due to the mess Labour have put the finances in, however the Tories have pledged to cut the main rate of corparation tax, this measure will give companies more rome for manouver and enable them to concentrate on protecting jobs. As a Libertarian, anything to free companies from the state is welcome and cutting tax means businesses and people can spend more of their money, rather than give it to the state, something anyone who shares my view would support in principal.

In addition, Labour have currently proposed an increase in small business corparation tax. Punishing the hardest hit companies in this way makes a mockery of Gordon Brown's own claim to be protecting jobs, as they need the help most. The Tories have pledged to abolish this, another good reason to vote for the Tories.
