Maybe because we pay them to be here? Just a long shot answer.
lol...well if we're already having to pay them to be here, what makes you think that jacking their taxes up to some 91% will make them want to stay here?

The whole income tax rate discussion misses the bigger issue. Do you want to live in a poor country or a wealthy country? We shouldnt demonize the wealthy for being wealthy. We should want everyone to be wealthy. A successful country is full of successful people. How do people and society become wealthy? Work and innovation. These should be encouraged. We have perversely demonized these however through income taxes, particularly progressive income taxes. Why are we discouraging labor via the tax code? Find a better way to pay for government than by discouraging the activity that you should be encouraging.
Cool, I'll take half.
and you'll get half when i save enough to visit your shop.

Halliburton got fed up, flew the middle finger, packed up and went to Dubai. How much in tax revenue did that cost us?
You might be an idiot when it comes to the tax system.

if everyone was wealthy taxes wouldnt really matter would it? If everyone owned a business who would work?
Theres really a balance between how many business can be sustained with a particular number of workers. Too many workers and not enough jobs spells high unemployment. Too many business' and not enough workers is just as bad for the economy.

What makes you think business owners are not workers? I am a one man show equally endowed with the skills to clean the toilets, manufacture a product, and take care of the customers. Just not in that order, usually.
