Since when do banks think it's their role to endorse a tax on wages? I would propose customers of this bank close their accts in revolt of this B.S.. I know some people that work at home after the pandemic & took some big pay cuts to be able to work from home.
Snowflake tax, I like it!! Too scared to leave the house, 5% for the privelidge sounds good to me, 50% would be better.
Deutsche Bank proposes a 5% tax for people still working from home after the pandemic -That is totally dumb!! They should do the opposite - issuing a 5% tax break or 5% compensation for people who are still willing to work from home after the pandemic, relieving all the traffic jam, reducing CO2 emission, maintaining the quality of the roads, reducing the transmission of flu and other diseases, reducing and possibly eliminating rent for office space, allowing companies to take advantage of network infrastructure that's already in place, higher productivity in place of daily commutes...the number of benefits is just too numerous to name. Many tech companies are having people working from home permanently and this idiot bank wants to punish people for working from home? Douche Bank indeed!!
All taxes are bad. But if we are going to raise taxes to pay for all the Covid bail outs. Then this one doesnt sound like the worst idea. But it is unfair to the people who were already working from home pre covid.
Tomorrow's headline? Rotor Rotor proposes a 20% tax on banks that do not give hassle free loans to small business start ups, no matter how much risk they perceive.
I think all of this is quite rich, considering the source: freaking Deutsche Bank. King of the money launderers, the LIBOR interest rate fixing scam, one of the ringleaders for packaging and selling toxic assets in 2008, Banker to terrorists and chronic violator of international terrorist economic sanctions, CO2 Emissions Certificates Trading Fraud, Bank executives who hire private investigators to harass journalists, and Banker to Jeffery Epstein and every despot on planet Earth. Oh, and Banker to the Nazis. Confiscated Jewish accounts and property in the 1930's. Took over all the banks in the conquered Countries and facilitated their looting. Financed the Auschwitz concentration camp (they finally admitted that in 1999 after decades of denying it). Been fined more in the past decade alone than any other bank ever. Hands down, the sleaziest most corrupt bank on planet earth.
Perhaps the author of this idea is simply looking for a job with the new administration or it is a probe of public reaction to another radical left tax idea before design of new tax code. They need to know how far they can go. Beware the timing of this writing.
oh, you can be more specific than that (Putin launderers), but I can see why some would conveniently forget.
I got exhausted; the term "King of the money launderers" is all encompassing and for the Putins, the Trumps, the Kim Jong-uns, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc.. Hell, DB was front running the Danske Bank operations.
