fuck Olympic hype..
here's real life example. Ireland. Lots of US IT companies moved some of their resources to Ireland last 10 years or so.. The business is booming there. Flat corporate tax, loyal corporate laws.
Israel has been feeding itself because of US interest in the Middle East. If we cut the feeding tube they are going to be royally fucked. Plain and simple.
