Ben you're comparing corporations to people who are buying stocks from brokers on the island of Mann and keeping the money there so that they don't have to pay capital gains tax.

I'm bringing up where the overwhelming majority of off shored money actually is. The personal transactions are rounding errors, the hundred billion dollar companies paying their taxes in corporate friendly countries to avoid paying higher taxes is where the vast majority of off shoring comes from in terms of financial numbers. When you read reports about the trillions of dollars in off shored money- that is from corporations- not individuals. You mentioned these being major social issues- if you are saying that tens of millions in lost revenue is a major social issue, I guess that is your right. Hundreds of billions of dollars, which I consider a much bigger issue, is something very different.

Your actual example is a minuscule rounding error, it is not a significant factor for any major nation.

As for the CEOs, if their salaries are capped or if they are heavily taxed beyond a certain point, it levels the playing field and your argument becomes largely moot.

No, it absolutely doesn't. 

You have stated you think some roid freak who plays games all his life is worth that kind of money- but someone who helps the economy hold onto a billion dollars a years is somehow not.....?

I have a fundamental problem with slavery of any form, so what is your idea to prevent every company from complete collapse when no one will take those jobs? Day trading is a cake walk compared to a CEO, and you can make *WAY* more money then what you are talking about.
