Just a discussion thread It seems the major sticking point of the tax bill is the corporate tax rate. Democrats in general believe it will have no impact and Republicans believe it will generate additional investment. Why do you believe what you do?

I personally think it will lead to more investments because inversions to lower taxed states are actually happening. It doesnt necessarily have to be to places like Ireland. If I recall correctly Burger King got acquired by a Canadian company so they could take advantage of the 20% tax rate.

It is also quite telling that the European countries are now discussing lowering their tax rates in response to the US tax bill. Even heroes of the left like Macron and Merkel tacitly admit there is a benefit to it otherwise why bother lowering theirs?
