OK, so drop 'em to 25% but collect every last cent or every last dime of profit - no hiding in the Cayman Islands anymore. Bring it on home to papa!
This guy absolutely turns my stomach - to think we got RoJoke in place of Russ....

We have to be concerned about what the business environment is in the U.S. here. We can’t afford to have the highest tax rate in the world…Those are individual companies. I think overall, we really can’t be looking at a corporate tax rate much higher than 25 percent because that’s the world average. So we’re sitting up there at 35 percent, that’s just the wrong signal.
