Summary: Many observers argue that the corporate income tax is in need of fundamental reform. Is its worldwide scope damaging the ability of the U.S. to compete in foreign markets and retain the headquarters of large, successful multinational firms? Is the corporate tax rate is too high, anti-growth, or too complex? Or are businesses merely paying their fair share, or perhaps not enough? Proponents of reform assert that it could aid investment in the United States, the compensation of U.S. workers, and the overall pace of economic growth in tough economic times. On this previously recorded conference call, the speakers discuss these and other issues and answer questions from the callers. Featuring Mr. Seth Hanlon of the Center for American Progress and Dr. Douglas Holtz-Eakin of the American Action Forum.
