In the planned digital tax, Germany "once again digitally harassed", wrote Sascha Lobo in his latest column. Although it is not only up to the German government that the European tax for digital companies is not coming - "but then again".
Lobo sums up how low corporate tax rates are in Ireland, and why it's so hard to call in big corporations like Facebook, Google and Amazon. And he thinks that Germany at best only half-heartedly supported the digital tax and bowed to the pressure from the USA.
In the podcast, Lobo answers readers' letters on the topic. His readers had asked the following question in advance: "digital control - good or bad?"
