Ummmm... I wonder about this.  Most other countries in the world have
*higher* tax burdens than the US, not lower.  As for cutting rules and
regulations... I wonder how advisable it is to do that... all one has to
do is check the international wire services to see the much higher rate
of industrial death and disability due to slipshod practises (no fire
exits in factories, scaffolding dropping in a mild breeze) is outside of
the US to make one wonder.  Would *you* want to live and work under the
conditions 'enjoyed' by a (country of your choice) rug-weaver or
bricklayer?
