    And that thread's nonsense has been parsed, and dissected, per usual.

    Some of us can discern the difference between SPECULATION and FACT...

    Indeed and I agree the government should more evenly, and fairly tax all large earners be they corporate, private, or individuals, the way the government more fairly, and evenly taxes lower to middle class earners.

    You make it sound like the rich are just draft animals for liberals to do with as they please.

    In fact the income of the rich belongs to the rich - not deadbeat Obama voters who are too lazy to work.

    A tax dollar deferred is a tax dollar that has to be recouped by other revenue streams. While welfare might not be the most accurate way to phrase IDK say a one time yacht exemption, it is not unfair to call it yacht welfare.

    BTW I do think there was at least at one time some kind of yacht write off/exemption/deduction in our beloved tax code.

    Wrong!

    A Corporation is regarded as individual by law...

    Without people, a corporation does not exist.

    Get your head out of your backside.

    So here we are once again with the "we must punish the rich for being successful by taxing them more so that they pay their fair share" Pavlov's dog leftninny talking point. Yes, corporate taxes in America are the second highest in the world...yes, the effective tax rate on corporations in America is the second lowest in the world...but America is not the world, no matter how much you and Obama may want it to be. The bottom line is still the fact that you and your ilk (including Obama) feel that punishing the rich and successful by making them pay "their fair share" will fix the economy and is the most idiotic idea ever introduced to business economics. It is a philosophy that all but erases any concept of profit and is anathema to the success of any business in a free market; why succeed at all if the end result requires that you never enjoy the fruits of your labor? That's like awarding the winner of a race the bronze medal while giving the gold to the last place losers!

    Oh please, you are so hyper partisan that you cannot be taken seriously. Your post is completely ridiculous. Like all of your topics.

    Okay so how do we fund our government then? Clearly leaving the rate of taxation the same (or lowering it as some of your ilk like to champion) isn't balancing the books anytime soon... so if not those that can most afford it how do we fund government?

    Yep, and it severely hurt John Kerry's presidential campaign in 2004 when he tried to write off a higher tax exemption to the IRS on a yacht that he owned in another state and his cheapskate move went public.

    Ridiculous? How so?

    Are you saying a Corporation is NOT regarded as individual by law?

    Or are you saying that a corporation can exist without people?

    Please do explain.

    Easy. Stop wasteful government spending, starting with ObamaCare and the rest of his socialist policies, and go from there.

    Indeed I don't understand how people in public office/seeking public office try and seek out every tax loophole/haven they can it just looks really bad... see Mitt's offshore bank accounts.

    But Obamacare is a net saver at least to Medicare. It should offset a lot of uninsured medical expenses too, as there will be significantly fewer of those drains on the medical system.

    Where in the Constitution does it say that people who create a Corporation get their rights stripped away?

    What don't you understand about Corporations being created by PEOPLE?

    The people within a corporation have individual rights, a corporation does not have individual rights at least not in the same way, speech maybe, sorta, kinda.

    Did Obama chastise the folk that called Romney a traitor in one of Obama's campaign speech events?

    businesses can not be taxes as a person, but they can be taxed as a business

    corporations can't vote either.... cause they are not a person

    Do you not remember last election round when Palin had wound the RWers up so much, that people shouted stuff to McCain which was so bad, that McCain had to defend the honour of Obama?

    It's just the same whack jobs, who unfortunately have loud voices in your country. They're simple folk, undereducated, and (*)(*)(*)(*) kickers.

    One account of a dumb (*)(*)(*)(*) conservative can be juxtaposed by a retarded ass liberal.

    Obama can't help being what he is. he was raised among communists and socialists. I do believe that in his heart he is not a bad person and probably thinks he is the messiah and all knowing wise one, the rest of us are just peons to him

    I remember that when Palin started egging people on to call Obama a terrorist and worse during the 2008 campaign, McCain stepped in and put her and her idiot followers in their place.
    I doubt that Romney has the class or the guts to stand up to the right-wingers and he will likely encourage this sort of hysteria from the repubs.
