Tax Competition: A Liberalizing Force in the World Economy

A mini-documentary by Center for Freedom and Prosperity Foundation that explains how international tax competition has led to better tax policy and better economic performance, but also warns that international bureaucracies are trying to rig the system against taxpayers by creating "an OPEC for politicians."

i hate this fucking guy!!!!. he is say let bring down taxes for big companies. you know what happens when u give big companies big tax brakes they get richer and we end up paying more taxes ,as little guys. i am living my life to pay check to pay check and taxes are getting worse

xcon99 Not entirely true. First big companies use that to expand or invest in for larger profit which creates more jobs for you and others. Second they invest it to either a) make a better product b) make that same product cheaper c) to give more jobs to more people. Thanks to these tax breaks you get a job and better + cheaper products. Also keep in mind their big profits are still taxed. All the government needs to do is cut spending so you and everyone else can benefit.

Sorry 2132343322313.See this After I moved here six years ago, I quickly noticed that Norwegians live more frugally than Americans do. They hang on to old appliances and furniture that we would throw out. And they drive around in wrecks. In 2003, when my partner and I took his teenage brother to New York - his first trip outside of Europe - he stared boggle-eyed at the cars in the Newark Airport parking lot, as mesmerized as Robin Williams in a New York grocery store in "Moscow on the Hudson."

It is an article by Bruce Bawer called "We're Rich, You're Not. End of Story." in the April 17 2005 New York Times. The article talks about Scandinavia but it is true, it never says that in Sweden people drive old wrecks. But I doubt very much that you drive much better cars than norwegians. What I meant is Human Developpement Statistics become useless once you compare rich countries because they do not make a difference between a $1000 wreck and a $24.000 Toyota RAV4. That was my point.

It was a mistake saying that you drive lots of $1000 Toyotas because I do not know that for sure. It was a mistake. Sorry. I needed to compare a $24.000 RAV4 with a $1000 1991 Toyota Corolla. Norway is full of oil, $12000 per person per year when oil was much much cheaper, I doubt very very much that you Swedes have a higher standard of living than norwegians since Norway always show a ridiculously high GDP. It is so high because TAXES are counted 2 times. PPP figures are more reasonable.

I don't get it....are you for supply-side economics or free markets?

You know 2132343322313, now there is the internet, and you cannot pretend anymore that Sweden is a role model. While most US people live in beautiful individual houses, in Stockholm most of the people live in apartments, all them looking the same. That is really depressing and the snow and cold makes it even more depressing. And I doubt very much that swedish girls are more beautiful than brazilian or colombian girls, but you go on bragging about having the most beautiful girls

When I said "you" I meant "swedes" brag about having the most beautiful women.

Before talking about Sweden I saw EVERY photograph in Google Earth. And there are lots of old ugly Volvos in Sweden, much more than in the USA. I have never been to Sweden because it is such an expensive place and it looks boring and OLD OLD OLD but I know the USA. Just read Lonely Planet Europe. Bruce Bawer in New York Tomes wrote about people driving old wrecks in Scandinavia, compared to USA. AnD there is UE vs USA by Timbro that shows with hard statistics how the standard of living is much

SupplySideRules (Thursday 24th of July 2008 12:49:05 AM)

higher in the USA. Sweden is extremely expensive, just read Lonely Planet Europe. I searched YouTube for every Stockholm video before talking and I found 2 or 3 videos about people complaining about the horrible small hotel rooms they got for they money. I am not taking facts out of my ass. And Sweden bikes are REALLY UGLY.
