The fact that a company large or small would leave the US to reduce
the amount of taxes they have to pay ought to show you that taxes
are too high in this country.

Unless the purchasers of the company aren't domestic in the first
place.


Purchasers of what? The company's stock?

The company. IE, I'm a corporation in Asia or Europe, I'm acquiring
your company (say, Chrysler), I'm moving it outside of the US. Not
because the taxes are too high, but because I can.



Do you have some information that the reason for the move is that
Halliburton is being purchased? I haven't heard that? All I've heard is they
are moving there because that is where the business is thought the general
feeling is they are doing it for the tax advantages. I think it is probably
a little of both.
