The concept of "tax harmonization" is really big in the EU and with socialists in general. They view excessively low tax rates as a violation of "international law". The will talk about "harmony" and then about a central authority since everything is "in harmony". This is not WTO. This is how to get permanent unelected power.

YEah? I like how the EU forbide member countries from running deficits but France and Germany do so anyway. I think we can see where this is all leading.

It seems to me that the whole reason the UN is IN the US is that we were sold a notion post WWII that we were naive in the ways of the world. Hopefully, in the post-post-modern era, we understand that that was just a tactic to try to bring us down. We understand them only TOO well.
