23. Even if taxes are not an issue...

if the money had been in a U.S. bank instead wouldn't it have more likely been used to fund home loans and car loans and small business loans and other things FOR AMERICANS? I don't know what happens to money in international institutions but it would seem to follow that it gets "deployed" on an international basis, potentially helping anybody or anything that offers the highest return. Iran? Drug cartels? Is that patriotic? Does somebody like that belong in the White House?
