>>322284090
You have to agree to some shit you won't even read whenever you buy something in Europe.
Basically nothing changed for normies but if you DARE to do anything legally against Valve, in Europe, they'll go "LOL, OUR SERVICES ARE IN MURRIKA" and laught at you.

Actually, this technically means that prices would go down in the EU. But what will most likely happen is Valve will hike up the prices to accommodate.

>Warren Buffett, who is seen as one of the most ethical businessmen alive today, has accrued over $60B in deferred taxes through loopholes
All major corporations and businessmen are fucking crooks.
They need to close the loopholes but not oversimplify the tax code (a flat tax would not be flat in practice).

>>322285376
Do you like emergency services?
Do you like roads and highways?

Cant wait for another round of Valve/Gabe dicksucking across the internet defending this.

It's called unfair competition

Don't ever fucking reply to me again or I'll kill you...
>>
>>322286479
The social contract is supposed to be a two-way street.

Largely the populace of a western nation is just a consumer base and labour pool as far as the powers that be are concerned.

You are not cared for by the state because your life is intrinsically valued as a human being. But because you are another component in the machinery that gives them money and power.

Fuck the social contract: theft of government property is reclamation.

>>322284090
This is the only correct explanation >>322284460
Up till now, as an EU consumer you could sue Valve in Luxembourg. Now you'll have to sue them in USA, except that the USA has practically zero consumer protection so good luck with that.

Valve has never had service.
He was just lying in 2012
>>
>>322286219
Yeah.
If it was even less regulated, it'd be even worse. This would be the endgame of capitalism.

>>322289050
Yes. What now?
>>
>>322289905
Close tax loopholes so that corporations don't avoid their burden of taxes.
>>
>>322290313
Or vote with your wallet and don't buy from corporations who pay taxes in tax havens instead of your own country.
>>
>>322290495
are you a libertarian or something? it doesn't work that way.
