I have no answers for here. I do know that “taxes bad” or “cutting taxes for business is good ” are just slogans and far too simplistic to help inform decisions which effect the long term prosperity of the USA. Try looking at it from the viewpoint of "what brings the maximum amount of business to the USA?" People doing business here are bring in capital and spending money here, one way or the other. It is to the advantage of the country to maximize this effect. The tax consequences are secondary. We want rich people to live here. Let them be ostentatious here. Tie up their yachts in our marinas. Rub our noses in their wealth. Move and keep their businesses here because they can make a bigger buck here than they can overseas. We are moving to a society where people can live and work anywhere. Let's make sure they would rather do it here. Those here do better when they do.
