Starbucks, a greedy tax-dodging company in UK.

[jmacusa]

Starbucks thinks it’s paying too much taxes in the US? Wait till they see what the Brits are going to soak them for.

A simplified tax system would be so much simpler for everyone. Much less need for large buraucracy.... oh, I think see the problem...

"It makes people incredibly angry in the current fiscal climate,"

So do the logical thing to assuage your anger. Tax them to the max.

And watch the cost of their goods and services go up in direct proportion. (Or alternately, they might just eliminate a few jobs - including yours.)

I know I shouldn’t. But I always enjoy it when these companies run by left-wing extremists get hit with huge tax bills or burdensome regulations.

They’re all fricken morons. Corporations don’t pay taxes. They collect them. The only thing any government official anywhere should be angry about, is that they’re too stupid to make laws they can enforce.

Let the governments all collect their own Stinking taxes. Then watch the cost be .$95 for every dollar collected.

Starbucks, Amazon and Google to face UK lawmakers over tax

Wankers.
They live in a different financial universe?

Corporations don't pay increased taxes. Their customers do.

Is that the reason prices went up 14% Oct 16 (in the US?)

I’d take it Starbucks has been collecting the VAT for them as well.
