when the u.s. stops being a tax haven for foreigners, yet fleecing its citizenry via taxation - then and only then - will these commies have an argumentative leg to stand on. Why do they worry about folks looking to save their money? They should be more worried about the coming collapse of the u.s. economy... thanks in part to folks with minds like them.

Stiglitz has said elsewhere that he agrees with the idea of taxing community created land values to pay for govt. services all of which increase land value the in hands of landowners at the expense of non-landowners. Any shift of incentive destroying taxation away from earned incomes and onto land values would end the incentive to avoid taxation by going offshore. Such taxes are unavoidable because land cannot be taken out of the taxing jurisdiction and obviously cannot be taken offshore.

This guy is a real dipstick. They are getting started a bit late on this cause. This is more govt spin via the media just meant to distract people and prevent everyone else from profiting now that the rich have made killings for years. Not a better banking climate???!!! Duh! Of course they are better. The only sense in which they aren't good is for the govt of other countries that are gouging people.
