Lol…this will never become law in 130 countries.

😬

Another step towards one world order.

130 countries = 150 billion. Is this a joke?

colonialism of one world globalization.

I dont agree

It should be higher.

Disgusting and lazy. At least they realize they’ll lose if they raise corporate taxes. Trump’s tax cuts produced record federal revenue. Funny how that works.

Blatant price fixing. So un-American. Do this in the private sector, go to prison.

So an economic Berlin wall. Great idea Jan

What are we doing with the $150 billion that governments get from the customers pockets due to the increase in prices from this global tax? Maybe we think about who is really getting taxed more here? Maybe we help the people another way...

Sounds me a plan to me!

What will be the consequences for the countries that DON'T sign, and woo business instead?

There are so many uninformed comments it makes me want to quit Twitter.

150b is not enough to fill the fraction of debt gap

Raise money for who?

Why? Why more money for the governments? That money never gets to the people. No more taxes.

The democrats continue to go after corporations, while the pandora papers do not exist. As long as we have tax laws, we will have tax havens. Somebody in some remote corner of the world will go for the money. The US will punish them.

Let's tax our way into prosperity

NPR Cookie Consent and ChoicesBut shouldn’t his black voice matter? Did you ACTUALLY watch the fucking special? It was probably the most insightful comedy special I've ever seen. Especially the third act. But naw. All you see is hate. Watching the whole thing, it builds up to a powerful message at the end. It can be crass at times, but he’s not wrong. I don’t think that the laughs are his goal anymore, but rather a means to convey his beliefs.

NPR Cookie Consent and ChoicesThanks for pointing that out... I like how this was phrased. 'Instead of access to Internet', it was worded as, 'have access to Internet in their homes'... Is that a real difference or is it just poverty and ignorance showing up as statistics? So
