Description

France eyes a controversial universal tax mirroring the US system, potentially forcing wealthy expats to pay French taxes for a decade after leaving. Aimed at those earning over €235,000 and moving to lower-tax countries, the proposal seeks to boost state coffers and avoid unpopular austerity measures. But with opposition from Macron's allies and the far-right, and questions about its practicality, the plan faces a steep climb to become law. Is this a game-changer for wealthy French citizens or just political posturing?
