Fair tax: Maybe rich people should pay it too."

[SirGalahad]

A race for the bottom leaves everyone in the pits.

Hard to know if your professed beliefs are serious.

They are they think that zero tax helps them because of the debunked trickle down theory where the rich will throw them scraps.

Dumber than a box of rocks - what is being unemployed then?

Make your mind up. These employees that you are talking about that are attracted to this new company, are they employed or unemployed?

 

[SirGalahad]

Would be helpful if you could name the countries, the companies and some real life examples instead of making up hypothetical examples.

That's how it works you dumb bozo.

 

[Mottie]

So, no actual examples then?

You said moving to a worse paying job - whats being worse paid than not being paid and being unemployed.

Seriously you are thick.

They are everywhere and you are too scared to look.

How is that helpful for country A?

If country A has a large, prosperous population

And a company, let's call is Amabucks, makes ten billion a year sales in Country A

Country A has the right to say "If you want to operate in our country, you have to operate by our rules."

Now let's suppose that Country A is a leading member of the world's largest and most prosperous single market

And there are 27 countries who all think that taxes should be paid, even by billionaires and multinationals. And the union decides not to let companies play off each country against another, to win the lowest bid.

Is Amabucks going to shut up shop?
