Totally. This article is brief, and they obviously can't touch on everything. I just think that the info I referenced above should be common knowledge, and for some reason it's barely even heard about. It's extortion by these companies, because it usually goes like this: "Man, we really love operating in America, but it's just too darn expensive. I guess we're gonna have to move to Mexico. Sigh...If only there was a way to make our tax burden lighter. Oh wait, what's that you say Mr. Congressman? You'd be will to give my poor little multinational, multibillion dollar corporation a $50,000,000 annual break?! Gee whiz that's awful nice of you. Aww shucks, I'm blushing."
