> “Is a tax on moving employees an incentive or disincentive to create employment in the place that does so?”

I guess people have to go really slow with you eh? This will be the last you get from me because dense is not worth fiddling with.

We are talking about moving factories, not employees. And the ‘mental experiment’ you suggested in a previous post is completely invalid because Texas would not be allowed to tax a company for moving out of state under the US Constitution.

So there is no answer to your question because it is nonsense. American factories moved overseas for cheap labor will lose the incentive because they will face a tax on goods coming back in. There is no ‘movement of employees’ to talk about.

Move along now. You had more than your five minutes.

Ok. That would be a distinction without a difference.

There’s no difference.
