Quote:Latest news, Obama's aide's have put the Netherlands name on the black lists of tax-havens, but after some comments of dutch government officials removed it again. I wonder how these people do their research. Anyway, this Monday he took the first official steps against these tax havens (what exactly I don't know....I need to find a good article about it), but they expect to gain 210 billion dollars in 10 years. Although not a huge amount it seems that working people will be happy to see that the government takes action against this tax evasion of large companies.Won't the evaders, continue to evade? Does the US government hope to bully ALL nations into allowing the IRS to audit their transactions? I guess at some point, they will just create outlaw banking and prosecute you for doing any business with the outlaw banks.
