The feds are also weighing “less severe” options, such as requiring Google to share data with rival search engines such as DuckDuckGo and Microsoft’s Bing.
If you’re angry at companies avoiding taxes, you should direct your anger towards the government. Companies that avoid taxes usually do so legally, either through loopholes or through intentional terms in the tax code. The fact that companies find ways to legally reduce their tax liability just means they’ve got good accountants that understand the tax laws.
Companies lobby the state for these hand outs. This has nothing to with being “good” and everything to do with them capturing the law making and regulatory processes for their benefit. Politicians are willing whores, no doubt.
Sure Goverment is limp dick but but it takes corporate lobby to make this corruption work.
Very naive take tbh.
Also brave of you to assume they are not actually breaking any laws considering what we know about US mega corp behaviors lol
