Google pays taxes here in the US. This article is about how they avoid paying taxes on their overseas earnings, primarily in Europe, which is why it says the UK, France, Italy, etc., are investigating.

The original Bloomberg article (which your’s links to) had a lot more info in it. Even had fun terms in it like “Double Irish” and “Dutch Sandwich”. Those are tax-avoidance strategies, regardless of how they sound...

Google has around six months left in Europe before they start to face major problems. The Germans are all over them about the tax issue. I don’t see how they avoid paying the Germans their share.
