The tax is the problem for me. Italy has lower income tax than my country the Netherlands. I'm now paying more than a italian. Everything is also cheaper in Italy too. Italy also has free healthcare which my country doesn't have. Taxes have to be the same all over Europe. It's not fair that Italy has that high of a debt and they get more than me. I really like the EU, but this is some BS! I would considering to vote my country out of the EU because of this. Maybe we should start a south and northern EU. All of the high income tax is in the north and low income tax in the south. I rather start a EU with Germany, Norway, Denmark, Belgium, Finland, Austria, Liechtenstein and Sweden. They at least got their shit together. They all pay high income tax. A 1% tax in my country isn't the same as a 1% tax in Italy. In Euro's that 1% tax is also more than Italy, but that i can live with.

@noldo3837 Maybe we should do a tax for corporations all of the EU! Just a thought.... You think i like paying tax and the Google and Apple's of this world don't pay their fair share. Same thing applies to Italy and corporations. The Netherlands is actually a pass-through country to low corporate tax rate countries like Ireland. The corporate tax rate is actually high in the Netherlands. Without low corporate tax rate countries the Netherlands would've no clients.

Don't be mad Germany got his shit together. They've higher tax rates in Germany compared to Italy. A 1% tax is also more in euro's in Germany. Italy also has free healthcare, Germany doesn't. They pay for healthcare insurance. Southern Euro does this to themselves, don't be mad at Germany. You wan't the biggest cashcow Germany leave the EU. The one who pays the most in the EU for membership and barely gets any funding back.

@lucadesanctis563 You're not losing taxes! Corporations will always go to the cheapest country. That's exactly why we need one tax rate.
