Есть вещи пострашнее, особенно для Эстонии и других членов EUSSR, которые ещё не совсем лишились разума. Теперь их заставят.
A few days ago, for instance, the European Commission released details of a tax directive that will create a pan-European tax system, complete with a brand new Tax ID number for all the good citizens of Europe.
The proposal also aims to increase taxes across the board if they feel that a member state (like Ireland) doesn’t charge enough tax.
According to the proposal, other European countries like Ireland and Estonia “distort competition by granting favourable tax arrangements.”
Apparently it’s not ‘fair’ that high-tax France and Belgium have to compete with low-tax Ireland and Estonia.
So rather than the bankrupt countries getting their act together to attract business, the solution is to penalize everyone and make the entire continent less attractive.
Кстати, эта деректива - прелюбопытнейший документ даже просто по форме изложения. Такое ощущение, что составители обучались в ссср во времена брежнева.

It’s genius!
The directive goes on to demand more onerous reporting, attack anyone who takes legal steps to reduce what they owe, and even threaten businesses with exit taxes if they try to leave Europe.
