I wasn't joking at all when I previously said in [0], moves like this is how to lose and now this is another reason why tech founders do not start companies in Europe and when a company gets too big, especially in Germany.

Just don't be surprised to see a decline in tax revenue when countries like Germany chase the wealth creators out of the country with high taxes + exit taxes.

Wealth creators?

I would attribute that term to the workers who work 1.3 billion hours overtime, most of them unpaid

And then the company owner whine when they habe to pay their share?

		If it was just about workers then we would have comparable tech industry to USA. Yet we don't and that's because hostile culture and regulations. Abusing workers and but paying overtime is bad and it's a completely separate issue. It's also not a big issue in tech.
