It is important that the U.S. government's rights over domestic tax policy be exercised in a way that adheres with international obligations to which it has signed-up.Translation: The EU controls US tax codes (but we don't care what any other nations do). The Big Bad US is stealing our jobs but we don't want to lower our own taxes.

>>> ..... could contravene the US’s double taxation treaties and may risk having a major distortive impact on international trade ...... <<<
Ho ho ho. A threat, you think? How do you say GFY in EU language?
GFY!
We can and will deal with ‘a major distortive impact on international trade’ when the crisis comes up.

If that is true, why did so many US companies go to Ireland?? Ireland is a member of the EU!

It’s an amusing fake criticism.
First....to say there is some ‘fair deal taxation’ rate makes your argument fake from the start.
Second...the one thing I don’t get from this whole criticism is what US product is going to have the big unfair advantage. It’s not like Germans crave the PT Cruiser or Chrysler products. US steel still can’t compete against Indian steel on pricing.
Third...if they really want to get at fairness....why not drag back up the TTIP trade deal that they dumped at the last minute. Please note...Trump wants major revisions to TTIP and it’ll take years to work this out.
Fourth and final...let’s talk GDP. The US has had a lousy GDP rate since 1999. Germany has been on a 1-percent GDP rate since the early 1990s and thinks thats a great rate. The US hasn’t seen a 4-percent rate since the 1990s, but that used to be almost the norm for the US. Germany is acting like the one-percent GDP is the best goal in the world. That makes no sense. By the end of 2018, we will likely see a 4-to-5 percent GDP. Go talk jobs at that point.

What is best in life? To crush your enemies. See them driven before you. And to hear the lamentations of their women.
The EU is proving themselves to be a bunch of girlie men. Don't be a girlie man.

Oh, I SO hope the WTO actually issues a ruling that our tax reform is illegal. It will cement the election of dozens of Trumps for decades to come!
