It's a gross receipts tax on the business. E.g. so if you make $100, but the business has $1,000,000 in gross receipts, then 0.1% would be $1000 in taxes or 10x

- maerF0x0 6y agoits a function of number employees and gross receipts. So companies with more employees relative to gross receipts will have less incentive to increase wages. also increasing the taxes by an additive 0.1 points (ie not multiplied by 1.001) disproportionately targets the lower gross receipts companies (such as restaurants, which would more than double their GR tax) Still seems like bad policy
