follow suit困难

France’s planned tax is a clear warning: Unless a broad consensus can be reached on reforming the international tax system, other nations are likely to follow suit, and American companies will face a cascade of different taxes from dozens of nations that will prove burdensome and costly.

法国计划征收的这项税是一个明确的警告：除非能在改革国际税收体系上达成广泛共识，否则其他国家很可能会效仿，美国公司将面临来自数十个国家的一连串不同税收，这将带来沉重的负担和高昂的成本。
