The only thing “historic” about the European Court of Justice’s Apple Tax ruling was how historically quickly the government and its allies in the media moved away from the illegal tax evasion and on to the “how will we spend it?” question.

Not so fast, boys. On this episode we talk with Economist and author of Tax Haven Ireland, Brian O’Boyle about how the deed was done, the steps Ireland has taken to make the immoral tax system seem at least somewhat less illegal these days and the reasons why the tax haven is actually bad for the quality of life for most people listening to this podcast.

Warning: may contain topics that expose the “it’s very complicated” narratives pushed elsewhere.
