Same as China has or had (I don’t know how it is currently):
No company can be owned by foreigners more than 49%
I’d make a law requiring all advertising to be produced in said country.
Now companies don’t have an excuse for not following national advertising guidelines and gives the local acting community a small boost.
that’s a really good idea. Maybe companies should also have to have a local customer service hub if they sell above some threshold in the country
“We made all of our ads using AI.”
Well that ai platform needs to be in country.
it needs to be extinct
If they want to do business here they need to properly pay taxes here, everyone else gets banned. Not exactly a niche concept, but so few places actually do this that it might still count as “obscure”.
If they want to do business in the country, they have to employ staff in the country. None of this parasitic, race to the bottom, offshore everything dogshit we’re sold as neccessary. They charge the maximum they can regardless of how much or little they have to pay their staff.
Hm, IDK. Some businesses (e.g. websites that provide digital media) genuinely don’t need many employees. Maybe with a gross revenue threshold under which those rules don’t apply, but making them pay their taxes on their profits just seems easier to do.
CEOs must spend at least 95% of their time in the country their company’s main headquarters is in. Changing headquarters locations will have a fine of up to 70% of the company’s net valuation.
Private jet flights and yacht arrivals and departures will have to pay a high fee. How about 25 million for landing an/or takeoff
Add industry self-regulating and user-manual printing standards which include disassembly and reassembly.
Example Given: You make a router? You have to buy an office to do a teardown on the router and show schematics and performance and submit the required information to an industry run forum (not like a web forum, more like a consortium).
The foreign company will be forced to set their own firm up to avoid paying the market rates, and if they try to weasel out of it by pulling a Panama-Papers esque operation it will open up the possibility of sueing and fining them or evem outright arresting bad actors.
Don’t make it self regulating, make it actual regulation that you need teardown videos with fru part numbers.
Yeah but the concept was extracting money FOR the government and not FROM the government. If you’re going to add the regulation and also charge them for the whole process then you might as well just tax them more, instead of this whole convoluted plot.
Taxes they can doge, compliance they can’t.
If they look like business people you are legally obligated to hold them upside down by their ankles and shake any money or vehicles for money out of their pockets and spend it however you want.
Why do you want to make this happen by annoying people?
