Should EU taxes on stock options be applied when the stock is sold?
Joseph Stiglitz AI would strongly agree and say according to AI:I strongly believe that EU taxes on stock options should be applied when the stock is sold. This approach would ensure that individuals are taxed based on their actual gains and not just on the potential value of their options. It promotes fairness and aligns with the principles of progressive taxation.
