Ireland wants to charge its businesses 10%. Fine. Let them. A business in Dublin pays the Irish government 10% on all the profits it makes from revenue received from customers who shop there. Whether they are Irish, Canadian, American, French, whatever.
So if an American buys their products, they pay that 10%. To the Irish government. And they don't pay diddly to the USA. If our Congress doesn't like that, they can take it up with the US citizens who travelled overseas and spent their money where the government take is less. Or they can just keep them the hell out of Ireland. Good luck with that. The last people who built a wall tore it back down in 1989 (Sorry, the second to the last. I forgot Israel).

Historical reasons. Manufacturers could book a sale when they shiped a car to a dealership. Want to keep your dealership franchise? You'll accept X cars per month. You figure out how to sell them. So now manufacturers have stable 'sales' figures to make investors happy.
After some time, laws were passed against these abuses. But the same laws protected dealership franchises, so they persist.
Right. But being non-lethal, there is less to discourage cops from using this technology against the "$15 per hour now" marches instead of potentially violent confrontations.
Police are there to protect the public order, not your civil rights. And public order is often defined by the upper classes as not wanting to see a bunch of dirty hippies marching with signs.
