Mark Cuban isn't a fan of tax inversions, either. Last night, President Obama spoke with CNBC's Steve Liesman, and their first topic of conversation was the issue of tax inversions, or mergers where U.S.-based companies acquire foreign companies and move their tax base overseas to enjoy lower rates.

for a shark.... that’s a STUPID MOVE.... less taxes more equity... besides the ussa tax rate makes ussa companies LESS COMPETITIVE in the marketplace.. In addition we are talking about $$$ earned offshore and companies pay taxes in each country they do business in... lower the tax rate.... then $$$ will come to the ussa and so will jobs..

Just another reason to conclude that the Left is full of Shiite. This guy lives and works in a no state tax state - phony hypocrite.
