re: #141 schnapp

I don’t know where they sourced their data from but I assume that that is only federal corporate taxes. The US, unlike most other countries, has high state corporate taxes.

I’m sorry, you don’t appear to understand. The US has high statutory rates, but we’re discussing effective tax rates. The source that you cited cites another document as a source, but when you read that document, there no direct references to the US’s effective tax rate as high, whatsoever. So, I’m asking why the document you sourced cites that document as the source on something that that document does not, in fact, say.

In fact, if you look at the various graphs and the US’s position in them as far as effective tax rates go, they are bang in the middle of the pack.

Such as here.

docs.google.com

Can you explain why your source claims something that the source it’s citing contradicts?
