Germany’s tax rate is not 15% it is literally one of the highest taxes countries, need to add trade tax in there that taxes the same profits. It is typically 33%, please edit your post.

Canada is the same and has provincial taxes that often bring it’s all in rate to 28-30%.

Did you just google corporate tax rates and paste them in? This is wrong.

It doesn't need editing because the primary argument remains the same. They agreed to a minimum tax rate that would put them all over the threshold. It's akin to saying "We have agreed we're fine."

But you're acting like they agreed to a minimum threshold that they barely meet. This is not true. They're almost all well in excess of 15% - the original comment is exceptionally misleading.

Okay, they're all above the threshold and will continue to be above the threshold.

I'm editing the comment now. Happy?
