It can be validly claimed that the United States of America has one of the highest and lowest tax rates among the industrialized nations. Why such a discrepancy?
The United States has the highest corporate tax rate, a whopping 35%. But, U.S. corporations pay nothing even close to that. Examples: (http://huff.to/IRl4D2, http://huff.to/xDUv7e). It has created a buisness environment where companies that can best manipulate and abuse the tax code become the most successful. I petition the Obama Administration to move to lower our corporate tax rate and reform the tax code so the rate that stands is the rate that is paid. It only makes sense.
