US has the highest corporate tax rate in the - world, uncompetative for

High rate also makes US businesses prime targets for takeovers by businesses with headquarters in foreign countries, as their profits are no longer subject to the highest in the world US corporate tax rate.
So it's about staying competitive.
So what if a capitalist wants to leave? He - didn't buid that, somebody

Insult much? - SM
[ In Reply To ..]Just because someone doesn't answer your "baiting" email does not mean they don't think. It means they don't want to get into a troll baiting session with you, especially when this subject has been discussed time and time again on this board. Simple.

That's why there's no discussion in Congress, either. - Just a dig-in-the-heels mindset from Repubs.

No More Corporate Welfare!Apr 08, 2011
I know it's not realistic to think that we could ever get to the point where people would pay the taxes they are supposed to pay, but that would solve our budget problems and nobody would go hungry. The middle class would have more money to spend and we would buy things from the big companies who make them. We would all save money because we would be driving on better roads, not tearing our cars apart, children will be getting a better education and not have to move in with their parents wh ...

Time For A Corporate SpringMay 26, 2012
A common complaint in today’s world is one of disconnection. Our industrialized world has resulted in less contact with community — we don’t know our neighbors or who grows our food. In the same way that we’ve lost touch with a deeper sense of belonging and place, many of us have become disconnected from the soul of our work. The corporation-worker structure today is a master-servant relationship. We’re slaves to the company, working longer hours for less wage ...

DNC Finally Reveals It's List Of Corporate InfluenceSep 28, 2016

For example, Clinton’s 2008 campaign co-chair, former Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz rescinded a DNC ban enacted by Barack Obama in 2008 on donations from lobbyists and SuperPACS.
