These idiots write the tax laws and then complain when people read those laws carefully and find out how poorly written those laws are. Chutzpah.

All Marxist/Communist totalitarian regimes build walls with barbed wire to keep their slaves inside and subject to torture, rape and brutality while working to keep the beast functional.

Ours is a slight anomaly where the border is wide open COMING IN.

But then, the regime intends to replace the existing White Middle Class with the third world diseased illiterates of South America.

How do we determine “fair share”. It’s not in the code.

Now that we prosecute film-makers and throw them in prison we have American DISSIDENTS —can you believe it..?

Here in California we have citizen WATER COPS who stroll around their neighborhoods, TURNING IN people who waste water. Santa Cruz even makes offenders drive four hours away to take a water savings INDOCTRINATION CLASS to satisfy the offense.

BERLIN WALL.

Nobody would take this as evidence that our corporate tax structure is not competitive?

The thought that our tax code is completely piss poor, corrupt and damaging to our nation never entered this POS’s mind, not once. It is just more of the same, Uncle Sam and his free shit army demanding the productivity and wealth of others.

The president hasn’t the authority to amend tax law.

All bills must originate in the house and are then sent up to the senate for reconciliation, passed back to the house for approval, passed again to the senate as a final and them passed to the President for approval or veto....

FO...you will not deem anything.....

” “I have a problem with a mostly American company using a tax loophole to avoid paying their fair share,” “

Fair share to a democrat is 90%.

Dear Senator, why not lower their taxes so they will move money and operations into the US?

Here’s a simple test, if it was a Republican President, instead of the current deviant resident, would this shyster still be calling for executive action?

Directive 10-289

In the name of the general welfare, to protect the people’s security, to achieve full equality and total stability, it is decreed for the duration of the national emergency that:

Point One. All workers, wage earners and employees of any kind whatsoever shall henceforth be attached to their jobs and shall not leave nor be dismissed nor change employment, under penalty of a term in jail. The penalty shall be determined by the Unification Board, such Board to be appointed by the Bureau of Economic Planning and National Resources. All persons reaching the age of twenty-one shall report to the Unification Board, which shall assign them to where, in its opinion, their services will best serve the interests of the nation.

Point Two. All industrial, commercial, manufacturing and business establishments of any nature whatsoever shall henceforth remain in operation, and the owners of such establishments shall not quit nor leave nor retire, nor close, sell or transfer their business, under penalty of the nationalization of their establishment and of any and all of their property.

Point Three. All patents and copyrights, pertaining to any devices, inventions, formulas, processes and works of any nature whatsoever, shall be turned over to the nation as a patriotic emergency gift by means of Gift Certificates to be signed voluntarily by the owners of all such patents and copyrights. The Unification Board shall then license the use of such patents and copyrights to all applicants, equally and without discrimination, for the purpose of eliminating monopolistic practices, discarding obsolete products and making the best available to the whole nation. No trademarks, brand names or copyrighted titles shall be used. Every formerly patented product shall be known by a new name and sold by all manufacturers under the same name, such name to be selected by the Unification Board. All private trademarks and brand names are hereby abolished.

Point Four. No new devices, inventions, products, or goods of any nature whatsoever, not now on the market, shall be produced, invented, manufactured or sold after the date of this directive. The Office of Patents and Copyrights is hereby suspended.

Point Five. Every establishment, concern, corporation or person engaged in production of any nature whatsoever shall henceforth produce the same amount of goods per year as it, they or he produced during the Basic Year, no more and no less. The year to be known as the Basic or Yardstick Year is to be the year ending on the date of this directive. Over or under production shall be fined, such fines to be determined by the Unification Board.

Point Six. Every person of any age, sex, class or income, shall henceforth spend the same amount of money on the purchase of goods per year as he or she spent during the Basic Year, no more and no less. Over or under purchasing shall be fined, such fines to be determined by the Unification Board.

Point Seven. All wages, prices, salaries, dividends, profits, interest rates and forms of income of any nature whatsoever, shall be frozen at their present figures, as of the date of this directive.

Point Eight. All cases arising from and rules not specifically provided for in this directive, shall be settled and determined by the Unification Board, whose decisions will be final.

Their efforts will only work if when corporations move their headquarters overseas, the US makes them a deal: that they can only continue to do business in the US market if they pay their taxes.

And this runs headlong into the “free trade” lobby.
