Since over half of US households pay NO income taxes the government has to get it somewhere. The problem is onerous corporate taxes are strangling the geese that lay the golden eggs. However it appears the geese are wising up and flying away to headquarter elsewhere. Who can blame them?

On an individual scale many people who reside in high tax states, especially retirees who can relocate, are moving to lower tax states such as Florida and Texas.
