How many local jobs are lost due this? How much is paid to Redmond instead of local companies who pay taxes in Munich?

I think FSFE is doing a bad job reminding politicians and the public about that.

Microsoft's German headquarters are in Munich.

But is this a sale office or a development site?

As this is potentially full of consequences for us Europeans, I'm a bit surprised that FSFE and others who fight for this seem to pull their effort out of Germany only. I live in Belgium, and I'd be glad to help them. Maybe there are some politicians here in Belgium that are well acquainted with politicians in Germany... It sounds like they only leverage activists they know (or maybe my informations are soooo bad)...

I was on your side. But now you've contacted Four-Tops-Itis, I don't care anymore.
