if you people truly believe there are no negative economic consequences to increasing taxes.. then why not tax them at 100%? if they refuse... then they're just "greedy" right?

This loophole change isn't a tax increase. YOU and your Company isn't going to pay more taxes because of this. That would be a tax increase.

So #1 isn't a factor.. So how about #3

3#) Correct the loopholes, remove the money going offshore, take away tax breaks for doing that, give tax breaks for coming on shore, and then...... give tax cuts. But that can only be done, after the 'problems' are corrected.
