I'm Done Eating At Burger King

[paulitician]

Canada got it right. America still hasn't. Canada dumped their loony Communists/Socialists and lowered their Corporate Tax Rate. And they've thrived ever since. The U.S. needs to follow their lead. It has to encourage businesses to stay home.

It has nothing to do with taxes. Never did.

Prove me wrong. Or run away, like you usually do.

And wtf's this bullshit about Canada "dumping their communists"? Do you have the vaguest clue what you're talking about?

When an American Company moves its headquarters out of the nation to avoid paying taxes then it is no longer an American company and not worthy of my business.

I agree.

It won't be hard for me to boycott burger king.

I've been there twice in my life and both times I got food poisoning.

My ass, statistically it is almost inconceivable that you have only eaten at BK twice in our life yet got food poisoning on both occasions.

Some liberal states have offered tax breaks for businesses willing to move there. They know offering fair taxes will work to create jobs by luring businesses to their states. BK went with a better offer. That is how it works.

Meanwhile, in California, Hollywood is being offered a big tax break to keep business there. Does anyone blame California for doing that? Does anyone blame companies for taking the offer?

Ideally, we would keep businesses here to help our own economy. We all know from experience that tax breaks work. Until we change and become more business-friendly, expect to lose more companies. If you don't like companies leaving to ensure their survival, by all mean don't do business with them.

Canada dumped their Communists/Socialists. And that's when things dramatically improved for them. They got their Tax situation right, and their house in order. And now they're thriving. We'll have to follow their lead and do the same here.

A few hours ago, on my way home from work. That Big Bacon Burger actually was pretty good. French fries? Not so much.

You just repeated the same sentence without explaining it. Why is that exactly? Don't have one?
Canada isn't exactly "thriving" any more than we are. Nor are taxes on a company like TH significantly different. Guess again.

You should be mad at your government, not BK tbh.

They're doing very well economically. Have been for awhile. They don't have the crushing Debt and their Tax situation has improved dramatically. Once they lowered their Corporate Tax Rate, things really took off for em. We could learn a lot from Canada.

Not really -- it's not a tax move. Got zilch to do with taxes.

Once again for the slow -- you don't need to spend umpteen billion bucks to buy a megacompany just to move to Canada. You just don't. On the other hand you can grow your business by such a move, including getting back into a major market you had to bail out of a few years ago. Think about it.

A lot more than we can learn from your posts apparently...

You don't wanna learn. It's your willful ignorance. I'm teaching, but i can't force you to learn.

Sounds like you're seeing a reality that you want to see. No surprise, coming from a well-known crony-government supporter.

Companies move their HQs because it is better for their bottom line, not because they want to penetrate a market.

What you can't seem to "force" is yourself to answer the question.

Once again, third time now (fourth?) -- what do you mean when you say Canada got rid of communists?

As I said above, prove me wrong. Show me one shred of evidence that this has something to do with tax advantages and not with, as my link said, the fact that Canada would be the new company's largest market.

Essplain to my obviously uneducated brain why moving to Canada requires a multi-billion dollar investment buying another company. Because I can set you up right now in an office space in Richmond Hill (Toronto suburbs) for 0.0001% of that. And that's after my finder's fee.

Is 3G stupid?

Whatcha got?

Sorry pogo, gotta call BULLSHIT. Taxation played a part in the decision making process. The acquisition due diligence team considered the effects of a "tax inversion". They came to the conclusion that they will save taxes- a lot of taxes. That's why they are doing the "inversion".

To be fair, they still might have made the deal without the tax inversion benefits......

And your evidence of this causal relationship is ..... where again?

So you just contradicted your own point. Thanks, makes my job easier.

The wave of articles is not about BK moving to Canada for the sake of penetrating the Canada market (because that would be moronic (like you)). Nay, they are about securing lower tax rates as is stated in the nut graph of articles like this:

Is Burger King s move to Canada a raw deal for U.S. taxpayers - Fortune

So, you're the one making a counter-intuitive assertion that flies in the face of conventional logic. I would surmise that the 'burden of proof' is on you.

You liberal bedwetting crybabies created a poisonous environment for business and so when they do what they must to placate their shareholders you meltdown crying like pussy babies and blame the company. There are no bigger idiots in this life than retarded leftists.
