That it does not lower at all taxes on common people and normal jobs. Large corporations who have interests (and money to enforce it) will always find a way (at least political).

This is the usual attempt from our politicians, who have no idea how a computer is turned on (no wait.. they play poker on their ipad while discussing laws), to regulat something they do not understand.

I asked what's wrong with the idea, not with the implementation. I completely agree with the fact that this law should have been discussed at international level (at least EU+USA). I can realize from your words all your discouragement for the global ethical crisis. I really hope that future generations will be able to enforce this kind of measures. (BTW, may I ask you where are you from?)
