@MForstater @fcablog @RichardJMurphy I think you know very well Maya that there's no assumption of the sort behind CbCR. 1/2
@MForstater @fcablog @RichardJMurphy It's a transparency measure to reveal location, and we've discussed it at length. 2/2
@alexcobham @RichardJMurphy says its primarily & unambiguously to ensure that govts of poor countries can deliver health & ed? @fcablog
@MForstater @RichardJMurphy @fcablog Expected revenue-generating role =/= CbCR based on assumg "tonne of non-oil/mining FDI in poorest ctys"
@alexcobham @RichardJMurphy @fcablog - if revenues not from FDI then where from?
@MForstater @RichardJMurphy @fcablog The assumption is that greater transparency can support more effective taxation. No tonnes involved.
@MForstater @RichardJMurphy @fcablog An assumption that I recognise you dispute, which is of course your prerogative. But...
@alexcobham @RichardJMurphy @fcablog It might well do. I remain unconvinced either way.
@alexcobham @RichardJMurphy but when ppl say its to"ensure tax paid in right place etc... so that the poor cld have healthcare & education"
@alexcobham @RichardJMurphy ...then I think its oversold.
