    Here.

    I should mention this link is from a tax firm almost glorifying the way that ikea has structured themselves. It’s a very charitable reading of the situation.

    Just google IKEA tax, there’s tons of sources on their alleged tax evasion, including it seems claims by the EU that the Netherlands facilitates it.

    I see this as corporate greed pure and simple. There is no reason people should be starving and unhoused while IKEA dodges taxes.

      I see - this is kinda what I was thinking too. I remember reading about it a while back.

      from a tax firm almost glorifying the way that ikea has structured themselves. It’s a very charitable reading of the situation.

      The thing is that it’s likely that everything Ikea is doing is legal, so tax firms would be taking notes (after all, their goal is to ensure their customers pay as little tax as is legally allowed)
