U.S. to have Highest Corporate Tax Rate in the World

U.S. to have Highest Corporate Tax Rate in the World: And who is going to pay for this highest corporate tax rate? The consumer. Each and every time we buy a product that has been priced higher so that Obama can have more money to pay off friends and buy elections with.

  • This is for John-
    Let me get this straight, you talk about corporate greed. In your mind, a business should not make money? So, if it does not pass the cost to the consumer, they will not make any revenue after operating expenses. Thus, without the extra income, they cannot hire new employees, they cannot expand their business - also resulting in hiring new employees, they cannot upgrade their business - possibly hiring new employees. It's really basic economics 101.

  • Hey, just saw this headline over on my Comcast: "Police: Kennedy Slurred Speech After Car Crash" and I automatically read in the Farkesque subtitle, "This is not a repeat from 1969, 1975, 1986..."

    Sorry for the off-topic digression.

    • I doubt he pays for anything out of his own pocket. You and I are paying his expenses.

    • Dang it Floyd, see what your've done? Now he'll be annoying us todeath about a living, breathing, thinking entity called Corporate for the nest week!

      • What are you talking about? this thread is probably showing the most obvious example of Corporate Greed yet. You're the idiot for not seeing it.

          • In short, corporations making it harder for individuals to move up. I can't simplify it much more then that. And I have given numerous examples in my time here on this forum.

            Some people just don't get it.

          • "Some people just don’t get it." No, you are the one that don't get it.

            Instead of complaining about those that own the pie and take the biggest slice, get out there and make your own pie. Then you can slice it up any way you like.
            But no, You would rather sit back and let the government force the pie makers to give everyone an equal slice including you. That takes away the initiative of the pie makers, which in turn leads to less pies and more dependence on the government. Just what the Demonrats want. A flood of voters with pie on their face.
            What happens when the pie taker/distributor overpowers the pie makers. I'll give you a few clues: Stalin, Pol Pot, Mao.

          • What examples John? All you do is post corporate greed, corporate greed.....You sound like Goober from the Andy Griffith show when he tries to arrest Barney..citizens arrest, citizens arrest...The only thing you have made plain is that you are:
            Stupid
            Have one issue
            Unemployed
            Get public assistance
            And you spend your entire day posting the same ridiculous crap here..

            Wanna see who doesn't get it? Look in the mirror.

            Now use your goobermint phone and call someone who gives a shit.

          • Maybe it was Gomer..Anyway I though it was appropriate since our prog seems to remind me of both Goober and Gomer...

          • You know, john is the greedy one. He lives with mommy and rarely leaves the house.
            Mommy has a phone right?
            Why does john boy need a safelink phone when mommy has a phone?
            He's being greedy by taking a phone that a truly needy person could have!

          • Rose I tried that line, Johnny boy just ignores it, he can't reply cause he is in the evil clutches of CORPORATE GREED and would have to admit it..Personally I wish he would give up his internet...we would all be happy.

          • IF John is really so concerned about Corporations and their employees making money, I demand he get rid of his cell phone, his computer, his television and any other products in his home produced my corporations. The fridege and stove. the microwave, the blender for drinks, ALL the furniture (unless he personall y made it himself by hand.) ALL Kitchen gadgets, silverware, and dishes, pots pans, etc. No using soap. toothbrushes, or tooth past. Oh and he can't eat anything he himelf has not caugt, dressed and prepared over a fire. No water unless he carried it from a stream. Hope there is one closeby. And he has to carry it in some type of home made container-buckets are made by corporations. At any rate, he must stop benefitting from the Corporations' by stopping the use of all products Produced by said corporations.

          • "Earned" is such a loose term. More like manipulated the laws to leech money off hardworking workers while at the same time doing their best to avoid paying taxes and other expenses back into society. or even more simple inheriting millions from their dead parents.

            The richest people in this country do the least amount of actual work. Corporate Greed.

          • I've been saying that. He is greedy because he is so worried about what others have. Nevermind they worked their tails off and EARNED their money. I miss that old commercial where the guy says where did clients for X house get their money; Pause The old fashioned way. They EARNED it! I notice John doesn't hate corporations enough to give up his computer and internet access. And those folks are making a FORTUNE off all of us!

          • No, I guess not. Tell me then-- if you are standing on the sidewalk, and there are two ice cream shops both selling the same ice cream, and on is charging 75 cents for a cone, and one is charging a dollar, which one will you buy your ice cream from?

          • I'm sure the troll would go into both and demand the "My Little Pony" pen and pencil set. When he didn't get it he would just scream.................

            CORPORATE GREED IS KILL THIS COUNTRY!!!!

          • In the interest of reducing greed you'll be turning down any increase in your income?

  • Interesting, we usually see a lot of the usual suspects touting Sweden and the Scandis as models for "fair" tax policy. Wonder if they know their corp. taxes are so far down the list?

    Hey, has anyone seen Kimmy around lately? Just crossed my mind I haven't seen any posts from her recently.

  • Sales taxes are regressive, meaning that they hit the poor harder than the rich.
    Obummers energy policies are regressive too. But Hey! He's got our back. Back pocket that is.

  • Too much, too specific, for this destruction of a countries economy to be anything but intentional. In the beginning I thought maybe, just maybe Barry was just another half-witted communist dictator wannabe, but he has targeted all the perfect pressure points.
