re: #818 Ward Cleaver

The negative effect would be that US corporations’ costs would increase (they’re not going to just eat the increased taxes), putting them at a further disadvantage compared to foreign competitors. The larger tax burden would be passed along to consumers, in the form of higher prices.


And eventually, with what could be the highest corporate tax rates in the world, our businesses will move out of the country in order to compete.
