However, I am not a protectionist. I simply believe their currency manipulation and piracy of all copyrights, along with denial of business opportunities to US businesses, deserve a high tariff on imports of goods into the US. Do I think WHY they are not in place is affected by lobbying? Absolutely. Fight that fight and I am 100% behind you.</p><p><br /></p><p>However, to blame US corporations, which are unique in the world having to pay income on ALL income they make worldwide, versus just US income, is so shortsighted as to be silly. US corporations have a completely unlevel playing field already due to tax policy, and your suggestions will simply force US corporations to abandon the US altogether.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
