Color me annoyed that the new scheme gives corporations a break from dual taxation, but not individuals. >:(

What new measure gives Corporations a break from dual taxation? I think I must have missed that, I thought the aim was to encourage Corporations to move their profit centres back to the USA with the much lower corporate tax rate.

Thanks for those links.

Territorial system: Exempts US corporations from US taxes on most of their future foreign profits, ending the present worldwide system of taxing profits of all US-based businesses, no matter where the profits are earned.

Repatriation: Sets a one-time mandatory tax of 8 percent for illiquid assets and 15.5 percent for cash and cash equivalents on $2.6 trillion in U.S. business profits currently held overseas. That foreign cash pile was created by a rule that allowed foreign profits to be tax deferred if they were not brought into the United States, or repatriated, a tax rule that would be rendered obsolete by the territorial system.
