This will result in more money flowing into the USA, more jobs, more investment, more profit and yes more tax revenues. It might mean less tax revenues for you personally. Because the US can repay some of the massive debt is racked up trying to keep your taxes down.

Today some of the tax you pay is to cover the lost revenue due to pirates outside the US. Or do you think the lost revenue isn't having an effect on your taxes?

Can you tell me where that's wrong?

By looking at piracy sites and advertising sites we can clearly see what big business it is. And it is for your company.

Before I take time to go and surf all the piracy sites trying to pull up more ads from your company. Maybe you would like to list them. To show clearly what side of the fence you're on. Because if we pull up a lot of the sites you have in your sig, you might just end up looking like an extreme funding source of piracy.
