Prime
Minister Mark Rutte has said the policy will help the country retain its
appeal to foreign investors as it cuts other tax perks in response to
concerns that Dutch tax policies have helped multinationals avoid paying
fair taxes.
Note EU-Digest: Dutch PM Rutte (Conservative) seems to have copied the new US Tax proposals from the Trump Administration, favoring Corporations above the average taxpayers. To make matters worse Dutch tax payers will now pay 9% instead of 6% Vat Tax, on products they buy in the store and super markets. And like Trump, he has also increased the military budget. One should question if PM Rutte is aware that he lives in the Netherlands (EU) and not in the US.?

Rutte's government is also cutting its corporate tax rate to 21 percent from 25 percent.
