Any income we generate in North Carolina will be offset by losses in Malaysia....or Scotland. No, there will no "income" to tax, I can assure you of that. It's a "game"....Corporations wrote the rules (well, technically paid their hired politicians to write the rules but the effect is the same)...and it's a "game" they don't lose. The EMPLOYEES of the facility will certainly pay taxes....and at a high rate too....33% or more, usually. The "game" is long since lost and apparently you are only now becoming aware that a game was even being played? I guess that saying is true....."What the American people DON'T know is what makes them the American people." It's a fucking shame....but...it's true. |

I guess I'm not sure what you guys are talking about. Corporations do pay income tax, to both the feds as well as most states.

If you guys have proof that the average business pays zero net tax (after all the breaks and incentives have been subtracted) to its state of residence, then I'll agree with you. And notice I said average company.......not just GE or the big huge ones like that. Last edited by Homeslice; 07-20-2011 at 03:03 PM.. |

Actually it's kinda nice having them here. A lot of companies in Canada do the old "1 for English, 2 for French" but pressing 1 usually gets you, at best, broken english from another country. If you press 2 for french, odds are you will speak to a Canadian who is bilingual and probably speaks better english than french anyway.
