You have a legal and a moral duty. Would you say it is moral of Facebook to pay (virtually) no corporation tax in the UK whilst benefiting from things like the NHS providing healthcare for its workers?
- bprieto 11y agoFacebook pays for the NHS healthcare and pensions of all its workers. It's separate from corporation tax, wich goes to fund the UK government. Facebook also collects VAT and pays VAT in every country where it is generated, including UK. And I don't know about UK corporate building taxes, but in Spain every company pays local taxes depending on the size of their buildings. So little corporation tax is quite different from no tax.
