Maybe so - I think we can do without it completely. But consider the difference: if we went to 0 right now, other nations would either have to follow our lead or risk their own companies that incorporate there to come here. If we're not clawing back foreign revenues that don't belong to us, we might see some of it reinvested here. Isn't the possibility of expanding the tax base here to make up that gap worth exploring from a competitive level?
