You'll need to provide some data. It sounds like what any anti-EU propagandist would first think of asserting.
And what about the businesses with access to the world's largest market?
- Radim 10y agoSure. The squandering of EU subsidy money on nonsensical "well chosen" projects is hardly a tinfoil hat conspiracy. It's been covered by most major media in detail [0]. Regarding businesses: what about them? I happen to run a business, and dealing with EU partners and clients is actually a (marginally) greater nuisance than non-EU partners and clients. Are you aware of the complexity of the inter-EU VAT regulations and laws, especially for SMEs?
