So it is the individual taxpayer who pays for their infrastructure.

Foreign outsourcing = straight investing and creating jobs in another country = setting up a Caribbean P.O. box as head office to avoid taxes?

Handy obfuscation and demonization but does not compute. If a company keeps it's HQ in USA and pays taxes here but does all the production elsewhere, doesn't it mean paying taxes without using any infrastructure? Quite the opposite to employing Americans and using the infrastructure but not paying taxes...
