Big businesses like to distract from their actual intent of closing doors to competition by virtue signalling similar to politicians that we need to fight climate change and make the tax system fairer i.e tax small business more so they can make more money. Higher taxes don't mean much to big business if they have the government assisting with special tax breaks, bailouts and even conditioning citizens to purchase their product and increase their revenues. Look at the Obamacare nightmare in the US - insurance companies have doubled their annual profits from around 8B/year to 16B because the government has shared in the risk, privatized the profits and coerced/mandated people to purchase their products.
