Pre-tax corporate profits are about €95 billion. That is from the last figures that I saw but maybe that could be corrected. We are getting about €6 billion back in revenue, which is roughly 6% on pre-tax profits. Figures from earlier years show the gross pre-tax profits from before deductions and allowances were about €70 billion.

That is an extraordinary jump in profits, while we are getting very little back.
