"Corporations shouldn't be taxed at all. It just turns them into collection agencies for the government."

I had a customer ask we what I thought about the raise in local sales tax from 6.5 to 7.5% I said it did not matter to me and he was astonished.

He said: "But, aren't you upset you must pay higher taxes on your business?" No, sir as a Business I don't pay sales tax, you do.

(though higher taxes could hurt his sales volume, so he should be concerned even though he doesn't pay the tax)

You're right, taxes have absolutely no bearing on business... < /sarcasm >

Using your own logic on taxes, why should any corporation move offshore?
