It all comes down to this...

Why remain in the US when it's so unexceptional?

well...
these corporations have a lot of businesses here. but they keep trying to squeeze every last nickel and dime-when will they reach terminal velocity?

it's like the little hick town here...they kept wanting to do more stuff, build more stuff, so they'd raise the sales tax. 1/4 cent here, 1/2 cent there, and the money flowed in.
and then they went too far. they went over the 10 cent mark, and it stopped flowing.
why? because everyone drives about 25 minutes south and spends all their money in the first big town in louisiana. they went too far on taxes, and it drove people to shop elsewhere.
