What is in a name? Sometimes a lot. When an extra financial burden is imposed on business, cries go out that it will make the country or region concerned “uncompetitive”.

These burdens may be imposed for a variety of reasons: to acquire revenue for the state; a response to union pressure; or to achieve certain policy objectives. Complaints are often justified, partially or in total.
