Clearly, then, we're flying blind. You can't tell me which businesses will be adversely affected or how the changes will affect them. You claim to be looking to the long term because the impact of the changes will be significant. However, that doesn't mean very much, in my estimation. If you had said that the impact will be major, then I wouldn't have a problem with that. Surely you're trying to tell me that these changes will have a major impact and will pose a threat to businesses. However, you can't tell me to what extent they will be affected. I wouldn't suggest this kind of change without having a clear idea of the ramifications. I'm sorry, but I just wouldn't be able to do it.
