For or against a tax on Big Tech?
A tax on the tech giants…
- Yes, and a high one: they must pay their fair share
- Yes, but only at global level
- No, consumers end up paying it
What's at stake: Everyone sees that tech giants pay little tax where they sell; the disagreement is about the level of action: national, or global.
The left's argument
Tech giants make huge profits here and pay little tax: they should pay their share.
The centre's argument
A tax negotiated at global level, to avoid trade retaliation from other countries.
The right's argument
A national tax ends up being paid by consumers and triggers retaliation.
