Good a time as ever to abolish Luxembourg
Luxembourg is a genuine country with real history, as opposed to artificial creations like Liechtenstein or Monaco. Those are the ones that should be abolish.
Given how much damage it does to the rest of the world
How so?
The tax thing.
This is true, but couldn't a similar charge be levied at a certain alpine nation as well?
Well, that would be why I am voting "No" in May
Swiss are lucky. When the tax/banking things are mentioned you guys can always point at Liechtenstein.
Generally what happens is, the EU tries to get Switzerland to clean up its act - and the response here is a load of
outraged people in the media going "Well, why don't they do any thing about Luxembourg/The Netherlands/The UK/Ireland hmm? why not clear up their own back garden before attacking us?"
Which, well, I imagine in we had joined the EU, then the powers that be would have been a lot more indulgent of the banking secrecy and dodgy profit shifting rules and all the rest....
