Re: Corporate taxes
Authored by: Giant Space Hamster on Wednesday, April 06 2005 @ 12:59 PM CDT
I'm talking about corporate taxes that are forced down because the multinats can just pick up and leave or threaten to if they are raised.

And if they leave, you're back to the same place you were before they came in. I still don't see how a country with a multinat is worse off than one without.

Secondly, the companies can't keep moving forever. There are a finite number of countries in the world. And when they move, they leave behind a trained work-force that someone else can take advantage of, especially when we are dealing with knowledge techs, as is the case with this EWB project.

Finally, I can't help but contrast your approach to the one described in this NY Times article. It paints a rather different picture, and to be honest, I'm more inclined to its perception of reality than yours.
