- e1ven 8y agoThere are a million other things which should also be done. Saying "What about these other things?" isn't particularly constructive to the discussion of this proposal. There's nothing in it which precludes changes to the tax structure as a separate proposal.
- Bhilai 8y agoTo clarify, what I mean here is that there may be other things that should probably be prioritized over splitting tech giants. There is usually limited political capital a POTUS has and if Warren had the votes, in my opinion fixing tax structure should higher on her list.
- carlosdp 8y agoNetflix paying zero tax wasn't actually a loophole, afaik, it was because revenues were re-invested in growth, which includes hiring more people and paying more for infrastructure and such, which is something we want American companies to definitely do.
