Burger King is considering a "move" to Canada to avoid paying taxes in the US:

It is the "new persons" (i.e., corporations) that have destroyed the United States. They all are economic traitors.
And with them gone, who is going to pay the taxes to keep our government going?
By the way, the ultimate hypocrisy is being shown here by both Warren Buffet and Obama ad-Dajjal. All Buffet cares about is making money, and all Obama ad-Dajjal cares about is having a good time at public expense. These two men do not deserve your admiration, unless like them you worship Mammon.
Update: Silly me! I thought Burger King was a US company, but in fact it is 70% owned by a Brazilian-based private equity firm:

And several of its directors also are directors at Anheuser-Busch InBev SA, another former US company now owned by "foreigners".
America, you really don't own very much any more. All your former assets have moved offshore (or are in the process of moving) and also are moving from public ownership to private ownership. And those private equity firms and corporations don't want to pay taxes, anywhere. Now that they pay low wages (as low as possible), no benefits, and low taxes (as low as possible) the governments which once regulated and taxed them are becoming more and more irrelevant.
We The People provide the muscle that backs up these monsters as they devour the world's assets, but what do they give us in return? Nothing but the debt which was incurred so that they could achieve "their" wealth.
Boy, are we stupid. And they know it.
