Why do we tolerate little Ireland siphoning American wealth?

Sure, it's American companies taking advantage of a tax haven, but this should be shut down. American taxpayers fund our universities and agencies to do work and create pharma patents and then legally transfer these patents to foreign subsidiaries who then export products back for a profit.
Why are we fricking with Iran? It's places like Ireland that we need to target. Not with bombs but with effective tariffs. Are you a tax haven? Your tariff rate is now the the difference.
Why am I posting this now? Recent interactions with some arrogant pricks.

There used to be standards here. Those are long gone.

I suspect this has more to do with your pet country than the standards.

Nope. They have more friendly tax structures than we do, better tort climate, and decent property rights. That's not "siphoning off" anything. It's us punching ourselves in the d*ck. As always if you need walls (economic or physical) to keep wealth in your country... chances are you're the problem.
