Not so certain, even on World Income based system. Legal
personalities - well they can be multiple. <br>
<br>
Accounting treatment for royalty income differs and is a major form
of tax competition within different tax jurisdictions (wondering why
McDonald's is now "Swiss" in large order?)<br>
<br>
Then there is transfer pricing. <br>
<br>
Add to that Congressionally approved holidays for repatriation of
foreign profits tax free to the US... and voila... taxes on workers
should go up to avoid a deficit right?<br>

<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Tax cut is fiscal dumping. That's
the connection.<br>
Some Internet companies can escape taxes because their
activities aren't linked to territories. Others are linked
to countries and pay full taxes.<br>
<br>
For example, in the new TLDs candidates. Some hundred of
projects are declared in British Virgin Islands, Bermuda,
Cayman, Gibraltar etc.<br>
They are US companies and nevertheless, thay are counted as
European projects!<br>
<br>
The real numbers of new TLDs projects are: <br>
<br>
US: 1230<br>
EU: 356 and not 675 as Icann displays it.<br>
Asia-Pacific: 303<br>
South America: 24<br>
Africa: 17<br>
<br>
Destroying the basic equilibria is dangerous for any people.
Even dangerous for US people. We can see the actual results
on the middle classes and environment...<br>
