    So our party leader is going around on television to highlight how Colruyt, a leading supermarket chain in Belgium, is supposedly paying 0.27% tax on a 1.8 billion euro profit. But the thing is, it’s not entirely true. If you look at all the daughter companies and the main company together, the actual tax percentage is around 25%. Still, it’s less than an average Belgian person has to pay of course but it seems that either he and our study dept. fucked up on this one or he decided to roll with it anyway and got caught with it.

    Now, of course this ‘communist lie’ gets more media attention that normal. But it still is weird to just tell misleading information.
