No doubt about it, as a percentage of GDP US corporate tax payments are at multi-year lows. As I've stated before tax law is the breeding ground for special interest groups.

as quoted from Office Space -
-------------------

Peter Gibbons: What would you do if you had a million dollars?

Lawrence: I'll tell you what I'd do, man, two chicks at the same time, man.

Peter Gibbons: That's it? If you had a million dollars, you'd do two chicks at the same time?

Lawrence: Damn straight. I always wanted to do that, man. And I think if I had a million dollars I could hook that up, cause chicks dig a dude with money.

Peter Gibbons: Well, not all chicks.

Lawrence: Well the kind of chicks that'd double up on a dude like me do.

Peter Gibbons: Good point.

Lawrence: Well what about you now? what would you do?

Peter Gibbons: Besides two chicks at the same time?

Lawrence: Well yeah.

Peter Gibbons: Nothing.

Lawrence: Nothing, huh?

Peter Gibbons: I'd relax, I would sit on my ass all day, I would do nothing.

That's my favorite line in a movie filled with gold nuggets of classic dialogue.

Peter: Nah...I've got a meeting with the Bobs.

Michael Bolton: Load PF3 tray...what the fu#k does that mean?

Bob: Sameer Naga...Naga...Nagonna work here anymore.
