and right libertarians will come in and say "if they just didn't have to pay so much in taxes they wouldn't blatantly steal and hide money"


it's accurate.

if taxes were lower offshoring would drop, offshoring is tedious and expensive.

if taxes were higher offshoring would rise, offshoring is cheaper than taxes.

in either case the revolving cash in the US economy is hardly changed.

the best juice from the story is the Queen's estate buying property from azerbaijans corrupt regime. good, fuck the queen and her entire family. they should have gotten the guillotine.

Let's say you started a poll, asking rich ppl what tax rate they would deem fair and would happily pay. Then pick the median and hope for the rich to bring the money back into the country... Every time you force someone to give, they WILL find a backdoor to circumvent that and give less.


Im pretty sure zero is a number they would all agree upon

Trump literally did this by giving a one time tax break for money repatriation. It was genius and even middle and low class wages rose.

Rich people evading taxes again while poor people pay their fare share as usual. Expecting nothing to come of it from the time we learned the system is rigged with the panama papers.
