That is so patently false (http://www.doingbusiness.org/~/media/FPDKM/Doing%20Business/Documents/Special-Reports/Paying-Taxes-2012.pdf). America pays a Total Tax Rate of 46.7%, while the EU average is 43.4%
As someone who makes their living dealing with the large amount of business taxes that don't fall under the heading of "Federal Corporate Income Tax", I hate that this intellectually weak argument gets passed around.
