how manyof us would keep our money in a foreign country that had no more risk to loss than here at home but with a return of double or more.....and no taxes on the earnings?

There would be some corporate expatriation of dollars that would come back to the USA if there were a competitive tax advantage. Some of those dollars would/could be invested in facilities and capabilities in the USA to be more competitive. End result no financial disadvantage for the corporate bottom line and the potential for increased employment here at home.

Today the incentive is for corporations to keep foreign earnings offshore.
