Somewhat misleading comparisson with Delaware included. Delaware is a tax shelter (no state taxes or corporation taxes on earnings outside Delaware) - it's used in the USA in a similar manner to how European companies use Jersey, Luxemburg, and Ireland etc. IIRC 50-60% of all publically traded USA companies are nominally based in Delaware!
