Why Are Corporations Hoarding Trillions?
I&#x27;ve often said that the key to improving investment is to eliminate corporate taxes, tax foreign currency movements (when money moves out of the country), and to put limits on the amount of unutilized&#x2F;under-utilized assets a corporation can hold onto, and for how long.<p>Corporations better serve the public good when they are spending, and beyond that spending domestically.  By shifting funds out of the country and&#x2F;or otherwise sitting on assets, there&#x27;s a reduction in economic potential as a whole and said corporation is less serving of the public good.<p>Corporations are meant to serve the public good by encouraging investment and limiting liability of investors not involved in decision making.  Corporate behavior today doesn&#x27;t reflect this.
