The government points out in the budget that at least seven other countries, including the U.K., France, Italy and Spain, already have similar taxes in place.
Come on, they’ve already listed four, why not mention the remaining three?
The rest of the budget kind of sucks but this part makes sense. If you’re making significant profits off of users in a country you should have to pay some of that back. All countries should have this.
Corporate taxes should be linked to the number of full time annually retained employees making at least the federal minimum wage with full benefits. Employ tens of thousands of people for years on end? Sure, you can have a tax break.
The strongest way for the US to retaliate would be to also tax these money-sucking, society-ruining, shithead companies. You know, just like every other “person”.
