Good luck with that!! Is this guy for real?? While I am no fan of social media ( I hate Facebook), this guy is nuts if he thinks he's gonna win this " war".
if twitter is making money from people living in turkey and turkey isn't getting tax from it he has a point.
hundreds of companies make money worldwide from people living in other countries over the net,local,state tax isn't paid but i can't see a fair way to make the taxes work and by trying the only thing they'd end up doing is over taxing everything.

How "he or them" can tax a ghost ?
Can TPB, proxies, bitcoin, etc be taxed by all the countries of the world ?
If that can be possible one day. Where the tax money will end up: In the hands of all the Corrupt Politicians (Govt's.) of the world ?
money isn't going to a ghost when it changes hands its going to someone or a group of people just have to follow the paper trail to find out who's getting the money.
Here we have general sales tax on everything but that is skipped when something is done online as money changes hands without the governments knowledge.
In theory if australians are buying credits on facebook a 10% fee should applied to the cost (added by facebook) and 10% should go to the australian tax office as its sold in australia so gst should be added.
What USA based companies are doing is selling goods and services worldwide but the people that pay for the services & the companies don't pay local tax on it, only ones that make money are the USA companies.
Government needs budgeting lessons but i'm not state or federal treasurer so i'm not in charge of what they do or don't spent the tax money on.In theory tax should help improve a country but due to stupid budgeting (at least here in australia) 1 government runs the country and gets it into debt then at election if another one wins and gets in they get it into worse debt.
