    I remember reading somewhere that the Irish “low tax” area was deliberately accepted by the EU as a sort of reparation payments for the irish potato famine, which was largely caused by english politics.

    but idk whether that’s actually true or just a rumor.

      The Irish aren’t getting that much tax revenue from the big corpos either tbh. Everyone loses here IMO

        Yeah, My last company setup an office in Dublin as a tax haven. It gave them a hundred jobs, but they payed jack all in taxes while funneling hundreds of millions home.
