No you aren't. And America already has the lowest corporate taxes of any industrialised nation. And corporate taxes play no part in the decision of firms creating jobs in America.

Corporate taxes are one of a bunch of taxes that the GOP and their media push as an answer to every economic problem. Taxes including corporation taxes were slashed in 2000 by Bush and economic growth collapsed to zero. It only got going when Bush cut interest rates to help create the huge bubble that just burst recently, triggering the current crisis. It's amazing that guys like Limbaugh can convince so many low/middle-earning Americans to support policies that are at odds with their economic interests and that benefit a tiny handful of people only.
