So you're full admitting that taxation is bad - and the suggestion here is to make it so egregious that business would rather light their money on fire. Kinda reminds me of your boy Krugman suggesting we bomb a US citiy so we can create jobs to re-build it. Or your boy Sanders saying we should be more like Venezuela.

You'll get it right one of these days

Well either that or he's trying to suggest that you should give something to get something, not the let the corporations do whatever they please with money they make from US people, US resources, US tax breaks, US lands, utilities, and so on. In other words the opposite of corporate fascism, which if I remember correctly was denounced by non other than Dr. Ron Paul.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

If you're suggestion is that I (or Ron Paul) believe it's a good idea to tax businesses 90% of the earnings, then you're not reading correctly.

If you want to discuss another topic - which is completely unrelated to the one above - my views on corporate subsidies are that they should be abolished.

Cool, and to be fair you have consistently spoken against those and any sort of corporate welfare. My comment was based on the attitude some have (not meant towards you) that corporations should be able to use everything and everyone in this country to make billions and then treat that money like it's totally their property with no responsibilities to go along with all those rights and privileges.

Companies have the right to do whatever they want with their money. If they are smart, they will invest it to make more money.

All rights, no responsibilities?

All rights, no responsibilities?

Yes - the government protects rights... they do not demand responsibilities.

What is their responsibility, exactly?

Wait, are we talking about the government or corporations? Let's figure that part out first.

Come on Steak Sauce, we both know they always drink something other than "a pop out of the machine" in dorm rooms. ;)
