Pitcher Posted March 21, 2018 Report Share Posted March 21, 2018 (edited) If you own your own business like I do, you want nothing to do with the left’s agenda. Give me less government and stop stealing my hard earned money and giviving it to illegals and others who won’t work. I’m 65 years young and I work as hard now as I did when I got my first job at age 14. Working is good for the soul.

Taxes suck, but it really sucks when multi-national corporations get this corporate welfare. When America was booming in the 50s and 60s, corporations were paying 40% and it was working fine... The idea that they should pay less and individuals should pay more is obscene. People think they just got a tax break, but when they see what they can no longer deduct it will hurt. And the individual tax break ends, but the corporate one doesn't. And this morning I see our government just passed a budget spending more. You own a business, can you cut income and increase spending? You might, but you won't do it for long, before the creditors come calling. I know the left likes their social programs and we know they are wasteful, but the right is supposed to be conservative and they are not showing us that... And Trump, who was going to make tough chooses to make America great again, is in for the reduced income and increased spending plan.. So it is the same as it ever was... Lot's of pork and Americans paying for it. 1.3 Trillion???? How do these guys sleep at night? B/A 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B/A I see u fail to mention individual welfare as a problem...hmmm interesting, how do you sleep at night? Welfare as a whole should be overhauled NOT just corporate. But as long as the laws are what they are & I was a business owner I would take advantage of them as well. If there is a legal tax loophole you can utilize...would you? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I believe in a consumer tax not an income tax... If someone buys a $50,000 car or a $20,000 car the tax should be the same. If GE spends $4 million on supplies and Boeing spends $10 million they should pay the same percentage.... Tax what we spend, not what we earn.

I believe forced charity via taxation is the wrong way to go. I believe if folks like yourself want to help those in need (noble by the way).....fantastic.

What is one of the biggest financial busts we as a "civilized" country has attempted...with little or zip results......ANSWER: Welfare. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
