I propose the following for the benefit of technology and education:

Government Employee Tax Benefit for Education and New Technology—GETBENT.

ALL the worlds politicians, as government employees, get levied GETBENT.

The tax rate will be 99% over $200,000 total income annually, or anally, as the case may be.

Gooberments don’t seem to create much Wealth.

These Globalist criminals want taxes for you, not them. They want taxes to keep climbers from kicking them out of their positions of power.

There's a reason why the Founder Fathers made taxes on income unconstitutional.

China launches Wuhan flu on the world.

Coordinated international CEOs immediately step down to to work on “other projects” including Disney’s Bob Iger, Bill Gates and now Bezos.

Nations promptly shut down and in prison their populace and pay them not to work for a year.

Now the UN wants global taxation authority.

This is all a planned totalitarian overthrow.

The world tax is the way to world government. I am in favor of world government but only if it comes from America taking over the rest of the world

I recommend cutting down on the UN. In fact, eliminate it completely. Wilson’s Folly should end. They do very little other than spend money on corruption.

"It’s not tax avoidance they are afraid of, it is tax competition—and of course they’re globalists, so they want national sovereignty to be superseded by new global powers for them."

I agree. Just like the Democrats' "pro-family" policies, this seeming effort to eliminate "tax avoidance," this purported effort to stand up to the corporations, is actually intended to further the globalists' goal of weakening and eventually eliminating national sovereignty.

This is something to fight against since it is designed to ease us into a one world government. Why would all corporations in the whole world want to give in to a tax that is not even for all? Do not be fooled by the U N. There is no reason for a whole world tax system just because a few men decide it would be good. Balk at this proposal! Do not get sucked in. Resist!

With respect to removing corporate tax sheltering and avoidances on a multi national scale, shouldn’t that also apply to the world’s wealthy and politicians alike since most have over seas bank accounts in order to avoid taxes and to stash thier ill-gotten monies?

“Annually, governments lose between $500 billion and $650 billion in revenue from tax avoidance”

Another way to look at it is world consumers saved $500-650B that wasn’t confiscated by greedy governments.

This is a great plan—for the corporations.

They can just bribe a few officials and avoid taxes worldwide!

Everything politicians do is based on getting their hands on more of our hard earned money.

although you were not real clear, you had it exactly right when you said WE are taxed enough already. People pay taxes, corporations do not. Apparently the UN is a bit more clueless than I thought. Not to mention labeling, Corporations as tax evaders. Just who made the UN boss?
