Quote:USA is not an isolated market, how many times do we go over this? Sure McDonald's and Burger King would have to play by the same rules in the USA, but this isn't the only place to sell hamburgers and fries anymore. It wouldn't be beneficial to the poor at all, they'd see less opportunities for entry level work, I've explained at least 3 times in this thread that companies will naturally offset the higher operating cost you're advocating with lower payroll.

 

Bzzzzt.

 

By creating the need for corporations to do their business IN THE USA the current labor market imbalance caused by the exodus of factory jobs to China and other overseas destinations the cost of labor would actually increase and the wages would be pushed up.

 

You should let go of these ideological beliefs you have. Like I said, all the problems you think need to be fixed by lowering corporate taxes actually would be fixed by trade reform and would NOT be fixed by lowering corporate taxes.
