Outrageous
Its got nothing to do with Socialism... Even with unbloated government spending a 12.5% tax rate wouldnt add up, its clearly just an outrageously blatent attempt at tax arbitrage by the Irish....
No wonder they were the celtic tiger for the last decade- looks like its been exposed as even more of a sham that at first glance.
It seems the only winners from the EU are the corporates, gravy train politicians and small principlaties leaching money off the big countries via tax arbitrage...
