Microsoft?
Not at all. In this case it is the government that has decided apon a new way to to get money for nothing.
We moved our company two years ago because of just that type of thinking: the local municipality decided they were going to now tax us (along with other companies in the area) a privilege tax for every employee nationwide as our corporate offices were located here, even though we pay a privilege tax to the local municpalities where they worked. At the corporate offices there are only 30 people, nationwide over 650.
It was a scam to get money for nothing, and there was no other choice but to move to an area with more intelligent tax laws.
Microsoft is doing no different.
