How Ireland's Tax Loophole Actually Work

Описание: Ireland is a country that once became an international tax haven famously known for helping Apple, Google, and formerly Facebook to avoid $28 billion in taxes combined.

This tax scheme is also the main reason why Ireland has the highest GDP per capita number in the world, although anyone living there will tell you that this GDP number is just an illusion, simply because those trillions of dollars are only sitting in the bank account rather than used for building infrastructure, research and development, or upgrading public services like healthcare and education. You know, things that are necessary to build a prosperous economy.
