With President Juncker, the European Union towards the decline
The start of the activities of Juncker as president of the European Commission was characterized by an attitude all its activities aimed at defending just passed by Prime Minister of Luxembourg and its decisions are implemented in the tax in your country. The brazenness of the new president had no limits: not only did not apologize for the rates introduced in the Grand Duchy, who stole legitimate tax revenues to other EU member states, but has defended the law at all costs. In fact this aspect Luxembourg has taken advantage of the lack of tax harmonization in the EU territory, without the application of which each state retained sovereignty over the determination of rates. If you can not, therefore, speak of a crime can not, likewise, did not see a very proper conduct in the action carried out by the man who now holds the highest office in the EU single judge. The strong defense of his political party, the Popular, further lowers the level of credibility of an institution that, on the contrary, must gain consent from its citizens, where is a growing distrust, if not the most open opposition. Juncker did nothing in his first meeting with the press, to keep the bass, giving way to a situation that may not be sustainable if it maintains the responsibility entrusted. In fact, it can never miss someone who will remind you in a controversy, his spent as head of the government of Luxembourg. The measure proposed Juncker, which is to reform the tax loopholes to prevent European multinationals, appeared not at all credible and almost a provocation carried out by one who has studied and its possible mode of these reduced rates, which made it possible to some states gain due to the non-tax revenue to other states. The issue of taxation is central to revive the economies of the EU, especially those of the southern nations, but so far Brussels has probably voluntarily, had a blunt attitude on the matter and the arrival of Juncker in the role of President of the European Commission leave some food high hopes for a change of course. But the Luxembourg can not evade the question of the states that have been imposed strict rules and very harsh on their balance sheets, which could not get the right tax receipts for the work carried out on their territory. In addition to this issue, there is also a comparison between the applicant for the strict application of these parameters and the countries covered by these financial limits. In light of the findings, one can only evaluate these parameters as a vexation, which alters the relationship of equality that should be in force in the EU, as one of the proponents of rigidity there are those countries that have applied a lower tax to attract all 'inside their territories multinationals. These assumptions do not seem to be carefully considered by Brussels, but may form the basis of the dissolution of the European Union itself. What credibility in fact, a union of sovereign states where, by some, there is such a blatant rush to rob, albeit in a lawful manner, other national entities with whom agreements have been signed logged for years? Brussels seems paralyzed is not offering concrete solutions and allows to spread the anti-Europeanism, even with these facts in a more subdued. However, any measure that this new European Commission may undertake, especially in matters relating to taxation and budgets, to be alongside the previous activities of the President, raising the level of confrontation and, above all, the distance from the establishment of the European people. Without measures to ensure a sharp deviation of direction and a new president, the EU can take the road to decline, despite the support of governments, but not that of citizens, who will go, sooner or later, the polls, the assertion of populist movements and cons, not just the euro, but the very idea of the European Union, which can not be certain. Without harmonization of tax legislation valid in all EU countries, with the rule to be deported if not accepted, as well as the repayment of the amount stolen, the conditions no longer exist, if not artificial, and for the benefit of large financial mergers, to continue to run a institution now too far from the needs and realities of European populations.
