Good point. I forgot about AMAT.
Amat merging with Tokyo Electron and becoming a Netherlands corporation is another example.
I've been making this argument for OVER 35 YEARS that treating job creating companies as evil doers deserving hefty tax punishment was driving jobs out of the country! Sadly, back in 1978 when I was a summer intern learning how HP was shipping test jobs held by "English as a second language" workers to Singapore for tax savings plus moving Silicon Valley jobs out of State... nobody seems to have learned the lesson and now they are talking in CA about setting tax rates on corporations based on how much they pay their CEOs vs the rank-and-file... as if that will help raise the pay of the bottom workers... phucking idjiots we have here in Taxifornia....
