Google does not pay tax in Ireland either, even at low Irish rates. So while it is great that it employs people there and it might anyway, Ireland is integral to its tax evasion strategy, as is the Netherlands.

Sorry I didn't mean none but nowhere near what you would expect given this is the entire revenue from Europe.
