When some people get to avoid taxes, the burden is heavier on the rest of us. And it’s not easy to fight tax havens, since most are abroad and the mega-rich are always finding new ways to hide their money.
The world’s most powerful nations agreed on Friday to a sweeping overhaul of international tax rules, with officials backing a 15 percent global minimum tax and other changes aimed at cracking down on tax havens that have drained countries of much-needed revenue.
Many of our international partners, including many of the world’s largest economies, have implemented or will soon implement this transformational agreement. The President’s Budget proposes to do the same by reforming the international tax system to reduce the incentives to book profits in low-tax jurisdictions, stopping corporate inversions to tax havens, and raising the tax rate on U.S. multinationals’ foreign earnings from 10.5 percent to 21 percent. These reforms would ensure that profitable multinational corporations, including Big Pharma, pay their fair share.

Then pass laws putting the golden parachute crowd in prison, when they try to hide the money. You can deal with these billionaires. Just let them eat the fine cuisine of a federal prison for several years.
