I'm okay with military spending if it's for technology. Internet, Commerical Airlines, Microwaves, GPS, ect was thanks to military spending regarding technology. I don't like spending money on useless wars, however.

We should figure out ways to lower taxes and make our country more attractive for investors so we can steal all the billionaires from our enemies. That way our enemies won't have as much money to spend on their military and eventually crumble.

That... doesn't make any sense at all.

What doesn't make sense. Many companies and millionaires/billionaires invest their money or have their "corporate" headquarters in some country that has low taxes. Those countries are making money hand over fist doing nothing but simply having lower taxes.

If the U.S. lowered it's corporate tax rate, then some of those companies would come to the U.S. or not leave the U.S.

There is another thread right now about how Apple is worth a trillion dollars now. I'm not sure on them right now, but I do know they used to do that very thing. Keep their "headquarters" basically in another country so that they paid very little taxes in the US. So because of our high corporate tax rate, we are missing out on the tax of a trillion dollars.
