Comment on US launches inquiry into French plan to tax tech giants

Comments

National sovereignty versus globalisation again. Is it reasonable for a company to make profits from customers in a country and then not pay that country's profit-based taxes?

(Also, the US trying to bully France on this one is unlikely to go well, that tends to trigger a French nationalist response.)

It's not reasonable. But it sure is profitable.
