alt text: 18 of our 40 employees are located in the Philippines. Insanely competent, great judgement, and $5 per hour. If you run a small business and don't have overseas help you're at a disadvantage

And how do you enforce the taxes?

The problem i was alluding to was shell companies, subsidiaries, and all the existing popular tax avoiding strategies used by big companies (that'd also be used for avoiding counting those employees)

More taxes?(im gonna keep saying more taxes everytime you reply, please keep replying)

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

For the record, I agree with more taxes. I'm ok with you replying more taxes.

But we need new laws in addition to new taxes, that prevent companies from splitting up their companies (money/employees) into distinct legal entities based on geographical location. Good luck with that, though.
