Corporate inversion and capital flight happen because we have the loopholes to allow it to happen. Close em.

and they leave. what part about recent history do you not get?

Quote:The corporations can leave the country but can they stop doing business in America?

They dont have to. They will move, still do business with America (more cheaply due to currency rates by the way) and pay less in taxes. Its a win-win for them.

Quote: I think not.

you think wrong.

Quote:You do business in the US and you're subject to US jurisdiction.

This is why liberals who dont understand corporations and the economy shouldnt be in charge of anything. Because you dont understand how it works. You come up with some clever manipulation plan that will FORCE a company to do something, and instead they out maneuver you, and what you have left is a void where a profitable company used to be.

Just study inner cities run by liberals, and the rural areas in the county just outside of them run by conservatives, and you can see what happens. Its all laid out right in front of you, and has been going on since liberals have tried to manipulate without understanding. The liberals take over a thriving city, and run prosperity out of its boundry. The conservatives build up prosperity out of nothing in the rural areas. The liberals then ***** about the tax base leaving.
