It would be more appropriate from Europe to count all the environmental harm corpos like Cocacola get away with and simply start taxing based on the extra strain they cause to society. Give a number and just not budge. It is not hard to deal with this man.
At first I thought it might be a standing point for Orbán to point out that they want this (but the bad EU, yadda yadda), but after actually reading that garbage of a propaganda piece, I can only imagine that part is boiler-plate, and noone along the chain caught it or could be bothered with correcting it.
Trump is serving up the distmantling of most US soft powers. Like how is this not a game of chicken for us to bunch up on Ireland and tell them no more fucking around with appl and alphabet. I’d love nothing more than a third level bureaucrat tucked away in Strassbourg to calculate exactly how much societal and global harm these companies cause. We could shift that into dollars (somehow?), and make sure they pay that tax, or we start filtering their sites. I rarely believe restriction is the way to go, but nothing would really be lost here.
Hmh. I am surprised to hear of this here first. Maybe I’m not subscribing to a balanced media diet, but I didn’t know Paks II was on pause because of America. Troubling because any and all sides could have politicized it.
Because those times are over.
If you want to start a diner and pay fair wages, you will need to charge so much that people will go elsewhere. Or some shit like that, I’ve never really owned anything.
Living in squalor is bliss compared to whatever 996 might mean.
