Raise taxes they will move out of the country and find loopholes. In the end it won't matter. Companies have armies of tax lawyers and attorneys working all day everyday to get away from paying taxes.
And I don't blame them. No one wants to pay taxes and if I had enough money I could afford a team of tax attorneys to pay little to no taxes I'd do it in a heartbeat.
At the end of the day this is all just bullshit meant to try and "placate the average American" and nothing else.
And this is the problem with our tax code, it favors the rich that can afford an army of lawyers. We need to simplify it and get rid of all the deductions and credits and the like.
Just getting rid of tax expenditures would come close to erasing the deficit.
No more social engineering via the tax code. Get rid of all deductions and credits.
