John, no worries, I believe corporations have been lobbying for that same tax holiday, yes the rate is to high and should be lowered but it's a form robbery which we the ordinary people don't have the capability of doing.

Where are they going to put it to work once it's back? 1) Employment - nice thought but no real pressing need. 2) Build out - demand doesn't warrant that in most industries 3) Safe investments - are there any when our currency is the underlying basis? Unless there's a way to deploy the money to advance corporate strength, position, balance sheet, power (pick a word) I'm not sure the shift back into the US warrants the underlying risk. If I'm right about any of this the question becomes - why not leave it spread all over the world? Bringing it back and having it ignite the economy sounds great but we're not in 1986 mode economically (my perception). What am I missing because I've got to be missing something basic....
