.............There, in February 1977, Rodham joined the venerable Rose Law Firm, a bastion of Arkansan political and economic influence.[75] She specialized in patent infringement and intellectual property law[37] while also working pro bono in child advocacy;[76] she rarely performed litigation work in court.[77]
Clearly this was just a random question from the audience off the street.
I hear she helped with the Turbo 2000 Shredder testing....
Corporations don’t pay taxes.
And if a company that develops a cure for cancer pill owes back taxes and wants to earn money to pay them off? Shall they stop production until the cure is lost yet the ‘taxes’ are paid?
Pandering, relativism from someone who was “dead broke” after leaving the WH but now is a billionaire.
” I think, a couple trillion dollars stashed overseas”
I don’t know if this is true or not but maybe with better tax policy, it would not be parked there.
Moreover, a flat tax that is neither regressive nor progressive is fair and consistent. These progressives are such ideological scum....
Black mailer.
And just how do you ‘suspend’ one’s patent?
Just one more way she expects to take control of the means of production. She is a marxist.
And do not forget to take away thier passports!
Why not reform the tax system so companies aren’t incentivized to park their money overseas?
Point Three. All patents and copyrights, pertaining to any devices, inventions, formulas, processes and works of any nature whatsoever, shall be turned over to the nation as a patriotic emergency gift by means of Gift Certificates to be signed voluntarily by the owners of all such patents and copyrights. The Unification Board shall then license the use of such patents and copyrights to all applicants, equally and without discrimination, for the purpose of eliminating monopolistic practices, discarding obsolete products and making the best available to the whole nation. No trademarks, brand names or copyrighted titles shall be used. Every formerly patented product shall be known by a new name and sold by all manufacturers under the same name, such name to be selected by the Unification Board. All private trademarks and brand names are hereby abolished.
It wouldn’t work because most important patents are patented in multiple countries, so the company would still have control if the IP through international treaties.
Hillary’s scheme makes no sense. The amount of U.S. taxes owed on corporate earnings held offshore is zero. Not unless the funds are transferred into the U.S. is there any tax liability. Therefore, suspending patent rights is a taking without any legal justification.
Hillary’s campaigning for Trump now?
They want everyone out of business except themselves with all their policies.
