I think you’ll find hints of the answer in the fact that most countries are pretty bad at collecting taxes from the rich already. It is fairly easy if you are rich to hide your wealth and evade taxes. I suspect it might be a little more difficult for a publicly traded company to hide its wealth the same way.

Apple would be an example.

Rather than pay taxes, they get a tax free date to onshore their money every so often
