60 minutes had a great piece of this. The CEO of Cisco said that all of the new stuff they are building is outside the US because of the corporate tax rate and that if they lowered it to be comparable to what the rest of the world has he would bring all that business back to the US and about 40 billion in taxable revenue with it.

that's what i was thinking too... it makes zero sense for the US to have the 2nd highest corporate tax rate in the world...
