    It helps push the tax burden further down the wealth hierarchy in combination with tax cuts. It also raises the price of goods, temporarily boosting profit margins. It's actually a really effective way to suck capital out of the population, and it will benefit hundreds if not thousands of Americans.

    If everyone is working in unhealthy working conditions for unreasonably low pay with no hope to afford the things they need to live or access to information they need to lift themselves out of their situation, the billionaires will own everyone.

    If everyone is simply slave property, no one will have time to complain.

    Would be nice if we started blocking these big US tech companies who don’t pay their share, their value is questionable

    This kind of behaviour is exactly what's driving Europeans and every other country from even using yank digital services so removing the taxes won't even matter. I've unsubscribed from every yank subscription service and have not even bought games from that country. It sucks, but I've also not bought anything off Steam either for over a year.
