France slams Silicon Valley for skirting tax in Europe I am completely in favor of anything that hammers Liberal industries (especially in California) and deprives those arrogant bastards of money.
The only way to educate these fools to the error of their ways is to make them live in the real world. They need to be separated from their money.

What is a ‘skirting tax?’ Do the French have to pay to get dressed?

Big EU countries have become increasingly frustrated that internet giants such as Amazon, Apple, Facebook and Google escape paying a fair tax by basing their operations in lower-tax EU states such as Ireland and Luxembourg.Exactly how would France propose to equalize the situation. Randomly? According to Population? According to GDP? What would France consider 'fair"? Seriously corporations are free to locate pretty much anywhere they want.

How ‘bout France pays America a tax for the cost of liberating them during World War II?

If you said Hilary was skirting the law, it’d be a sexist comment.
Of course, she actually broke it on many occasions but there’s no humor in that.
