BK to Canada?

we need more Tim Hortons in USA

My knee-jerk reaction was to fault Burger King for leaving. However, the reality is that the US corporate tax rates are way out of line. We're just not competitive.

That is the root problem.

As much as I would enjoy blaming Obama, reality is that the tax rate has been too high since long before he took office. (And long before Bush took office.)

But BO is the guy in office now! And he has EO authority. He has written EOs about virtually everything else under the sun, so why not one for the corporate tax rates?

Irony of the day: the majority owner of Burger King is 3G Capital, a Brazilian global investment firm.

Well, you know the answer to that.

He is a D-d-democrat. They love to tax other people.

Guys you want a different perspective................???

Being a proud Canadian.........I look outside my window and what do I see?

Wendy's, MacDonald's, KFC, Walmart, Target, Home Depot, Lowe's, Costco,
Arby's, ..................!!!


The other question is would you rather have Burger King over seas in Europe or right next to your borders?
