> Is the Dutch sandwich illegal? If not, then blame your government

I can't blame my government for it because the Dutch Sandwich is based on loopholes in several other countries' laws.

I do blame the EU for not cracking down on it more efficiently but the recent injunction against Ireland and Apple is a good start.

It's very difficult to compete on a level playing field when the multinationals don't pay taxes. Google, Apple, Facebook, Ikea, McD, Amazon should all be slapped a proper fine.

But I don't have high hopes as long as Juncker from Luxembourg is running the show.
