The Age of Corporate Treason

Wow. Talk about setting up a false premise.

No kidding. Both the OP and Nader seem to assume an ounce of integrity.

We're probably both laughing out loud about assuming that much integrity in halfwit nuball scum, right? I'm almost hyperventilating laughing at Nader's apparent assumption these assclowns don't see corporations as more important than the United States.

10 Most Profitable U.S. Corporations Paid Average Tax Rate Of Just 9 Percent Last Year: Report

What was your tax rate last year?

If you are an ordinary working class American it was more than twice that of the corporations. So you need to find a more effective lobbyist.

How about we just make everybody's tax rate 0%?

just give them a tax holiday of 3 months or so and they will see for themselfs how much they pay? lol they would be pissed off when the holiday was over....

How about a permanent holiday?
 
I am so sick of the goverment industry that we pay them to fuck with us.....it so stupid. we need a flat tax... and be done with it. just saying....I dont know why people love our tax system the way it is. because I fucking hate it. I am so not intrested in the game...just tell me what I owe and dont give a crap about deductions... I have better things to care about.
 
I wouldn't go as far as to say it is treason. I would say that it is greed.

Greedy is defined as acquiring more than enough for basic. Greedy describes almost everyone to a certain extent.

Corporations are going where they can turn the biggest profit. The problem is, with all of these huge corporations trying to evade paying taxes, the feds can only raise them elsewhere. The feds have to get their revenue, and if massive corporations are keeping a majority of their money out of America, they have to get the money somewhere. It's like when the IRS allowed a grace period for those individuals and corporations who were keeping money overseas to come clean, and not receive high penalties, thousands of individuals and corporations tuned in their money, and the IRS collected around $50 billion already just this year. Just think about how much money is kept out of this country because of the tax laws.

Why not change the laws?

They need to be addressed, and incentives need to be granted for those who move or keep their production sites here in America.... ohhh wait, we did try to do that, but it was prevented by our beloved republican party. :eek:

What good incentives could you possibly create which is better than investing in a more business friendly environment?

A consumption only tax would be much better.
 
The effective tax rate here is now 12%. They're going overseas for cheap labor. The marketing majors and greedy idiot Pubs, ethics free and EVERYTHING for the bottom line, are shortsighted twits. Of course the dupes go along, the ignorant shmucks LOL...

Why do "we" "need" a flat tax? Get rid of the income tax and replace it with nothing. We need to be able to keep our property.

The effective rate is just the average rate. Some corporations pay less and others pay more. that all depends on how large a corporation is.
 
So they're greedy evildoers, but they're willing to "make a hasty retreat" and stop making money at some point? That makes no sense. As for my explanation being a weak argument, yours makes two contradictory claims: That businessmen are both insatiably greedy and that they would be content with making a quick buck.

The individuals at the top want to get their huge bonuses before either the shit hits the fan or they're ousted. I've seen it personally many times.
Confirmation bias.
The fact that you've "seen it many times" doesn't mean you can generalize to all of American business. I guess those Germans, French, and Japanese executives aren't greedy.

Confirmation bias? WTF is that, some kind of Fox News way of saying who ya gonna believe, me or your lying eyes?

And in terms of greed, American execs are in a class of their own.
 
not really, if you want to know about nader and his foolishness, google him. I am not here to teach history to you.

I've been aware of Nader since I was a kid and he was railing against the Corvair. I doubt your knowledge of recent history is as detailed as mine.

what? you want to have a history test? I had one of Nader's "unsafe at any speed" Corvairs. It was a shitty car, but not a rolling death trap like ralphy boy claimed.

it was detroit's attempt to counter the VW and it failed. So did the Edsel and the Kaiser and the Henry J.

don't try history trivia with me, I will make you look like a foolish child.

Ok Mr. History buff, it shouldn't be hard for you to tell me specifically why you think Nader is a nut.

No, it's actually a real term that educated people use.
More unsubstantiated bullshit from you. Bitter over getting fired?

I'm sure they appreciate you carrying their water dupe. Keep it up and someday they might even have a job for you.
 
First of all, when you link to an article by the biggest corporation hater in the universe, I have no desire to read further as I know the drivel it contains.

Second, it has long been clear to me that you favor socialistic ideals and that further bars my going further on this.

A one post contribution only.
 
Corporations are not "patriotic". People are patriotic. Corporations are vehicles for making money for their owners. Nothing more than that.
And it is the Left that seeks to bail out failures of corporations. The conservative free traders want them to go through bankruptcy.

Except for the part where you credit ONLY the so-called left with propping up corporations you and I are in agreement on this complaint.

How could you possibly miss the fact that Obama is continuing the same policy of saving losers that was started under Bush II, Rabbi?
