There's nothing progressive about NDN.

Note that this study was co-written by a fellow at the decidedly right-wing, anti-corporate-tax American Enterprise Institute. The conclusion is exactly what one would expect from that group.

On P.20 they admit that there is little relation to repatriation and tax law. Why don't we just tax pharmaceutical companies and electronics at 10% instead of legalizing their tax evasion every five years.
