EU is not a country. It does however represent the world's biggest unified market. And as the US clearly demonstrates: taxation is better done centrally.

- JoeAltmaier 9y agoWell, its certainly trying to behave like one then! Uniform currency, no border enforcement/passport requirement, law enforcement that spans members. Its as much like a country as the United States individual states are a country? Anyway, taxation is, as the famous dude said, the art of plucking the goose as to get the most feathers with the least squawking. Any semblance to a rational system is only there to appease/content the citizens as they get plucked.
