I'm a big fan of EU integration, but sometimes the EU Parliament shows a complete lack of understanding about the needs of small online companies (including startups). I understand pretty well that the goal is to stop Amaon et al to game our VAT system, but you can't impose the same kind of complication to small businesses.
- tonyedgecombe 12y agoI think they do understand but the pressure to increase revenue outweighs those concerns.
- vixen99 12y agoIndeed - they have to cover this for instance. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/eu/11255493/UK-faces-34bn-bill-for-blackhole-in-EU-budget.html http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/eu/11255493... However I understand that some feel that drawing attention to the processes and construction of the EU is irrelevant and is a rant - the latter retort being an effective conversation stopper.
- tonyedgecombe 12y agoExcept VAT isn't paid to the EU so it won't cover that hole (if it exists). The pressure is from nation states that want the VAT revenue.
