    How much money do the corporations make from being in Ireland?

    I would be more worried about them moving to places like Poland then back to the USA.

    Also that news story isn't about job losses unless you include imaginary ones.

    Considering it is all about gaining as much market share as you can get hold of ( It is a global economy after all ) I wouldn't worry about this just yet being honest & The USA would also suffer losses should the US companies pull out of Ireland

    TBH Most US Companies are tax resident in the Cayman islands and the like so won't make much of a difference to the big corporations, and in fact will push more of them to become tax residnet off shore.
