G7 Nations Agree On New Tariffs To Tax Mega Corporations

In a defining agreement signed amongst the G7 Nations, it has been agreed upon that a new tax tariff will be imposed upon mega corporations and it would enable the signatories to tax US tech giants such as Amazon Inc. & Facebook Inc.
In what could have a massive effect on corporations, the ruling allowed taxation of foreign earnings of multinational companies, depending upon where they have operations rather than just the country where they were headquartered.
One of them commented that a global tax on large corporations worth at least 15% will make the competition more even for all involved parties.
