Wolf on Feb. 3 released his proposed 2021-22 budget, which includes a 46 percent increase in the Personal Income Tax – a tax paid by an estimated 855,000 small businesses across the state – and a proposed hike in minimum wage and higher energy taxes.
"The budget proposed by the governor is really out of touch with the reality facing business owners in all sectors across the state," said Committee Chair Martin Causer (R-Cameron/McKean/Potter). "Increasing taxes and artificially inflating wages – on top of the revenue losses caused by COVID-19 mitigation efforts – would significantly increase the cost of doing business in the Commonwealth and the end result would be the loss of thousands of jobs."

The UK has now been in lockdown, on and off, for the best part of a year. With the COVID-19 vaccination programme now in full swing in the UK, and hopefully with light at the end of tunnel, attention has inevitably turned to the question of “how are we going to pay for it all?”.
But in Rishi Sunak’s budget announcement yesterday, aside from the deferred increases in the rate of corporation tax (discussed below), there were no such immediate tax rises. At least for now, the government’s predominant short term focus appears to be on policies intended to stimulate growth and investment – highlighted by the new super deduction for capital investment costs.
This may worth something:

While announcing a hike in corporation tax to 25% for businesses with profits of over £250,000 from April 2023, the Chancellor said businesses with profits of less than £50,000 would continue to pay the current rate of 19%.
The CEO said Direct Access was "very excited" about the proposal for the potential 130% tax uplift which would "fast-track" the company's vision of involving disabled people in the design, installation and servicing of accessibility equipment.

IPOs on the agenda; Beattie beats a retreat; Budget omissions – Daily Business Magazine
With Calnex Solutions joining the market last October and Nucleus Financial in the process of being acquired, the running total for Scots quoted firms is back to where we were last summer, although the advisory community tell us to expect a pick up in IPOs this year.
Parsley Box will be admitted to AIM at the end of this month or early April and there are at least a couple of other potential Scottish IPOs bubbling under.
The relaxing of the listing rules and the prospect of an aggressive desire to recover lost ground when the economy properly reopens is expected to fire more flotations as companies seek further capital to shore up battered balance sheets and look to get back on the growth trail.
