Well, I can understand what you’re saying, but a great deal of our tax policy, especially business tax, is anti-company, anti-business.

If we can radically change that, I think the enforcement part of this Trump proposal becomes a much lesser issue.

I’m always confounded when people tell me they’re angry about corporations not paying taxes or enough taxes. I always counter, “Well, you do know those taxes are then considered an expense and passed on to the consumer, don’t you?”

All I ever get is dumb looks of non-comprehension/belief or even a doubling-down of stupidity, like “I don’t care! It’s not fair!”

“Dude, your just taxing yourself!”

“I still don’t care! It’s not fair!”

SMH, walk away...

Just a moment of appreciation here for Conway (and Trump). I truly believe our country would be lost at this point without them.

Superman and Superwoman no doubt, great post!

FACE THE NATION (CBS): House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi; former Defense Secretary Leon Panetta

Now that every reporter is suddenly an economic expert (thanks to President-Elect Trump), will Pelosi actually get confronted on why Tim Ryan didn’t think Democrats didn’t concentrate on improving the private sector?

Can someone finally go ‘hardball’ on Panetta about no effort being made to rescue the Behnghazi consulate personnel after Panetta claims he was given an order to ‘do everything possible’ ?

Panetta?/ Would someone tell him that he’s no longer relevant.

Well, now hang on...

Consider it from Trump’s viewpoint.

He is NOT a politician, and never served an elected or appointed government position. In fact, he is somewhat disdainful of those who have.

We voted for him knowing this, and made him president with this knowledge as part of his appeal!

Now he wants to go outside the political bench and find businessmen like himself to serve in his government.

I’d say we therefore shouldn’t be too surprised by some of his picks and considerations.

They seem all over the place, but we did argue that he would assemble a unique team out of the best minds he could find. Whether RINO or CEO or even democrat, he’s already considered a much larger array of disparate folks than most contemporary president-elects!

I would eliminate corporate taxes. Puts “for profit” and “nonprofit” corporations on the the equal level they deserve while we’re at it. Should bring a lot of this into line.

But practically taxing people out of being able to move their businesses as they see fit is IMO unAmerican.

We can hope.

I don’t expect I’ll agree with 100% of what he does, but the prime issue, which Ann Coulter has correctly identified, is not letting the 30 million illegals here currently stay to become the leftist voters they were intended to.

Here’s a great interview with Mattis from a couple of years ago—while at the Hoover Institute.

I am okay with that, for sure—though I do think he has reached his billionaire quota for cabinet members.

And there is just so much of a perception abroad that we have entered wars, etc., to defend our oil production that having the CEO of Exxon become SoS would send a, shall we say, unusual message.

The corporate taxes are the stranglehold....and the unions.

The biggest problem with unions is that they are now in government jobs....and we get scr**** twice...

Were it not for Kellyanne Conway, Mike Pence,
and President Elect Donald Trump, these stupid
shows would not even be watched, let alone
considered, by the sentient-Right.

Control-Left and the lying, pre-paid MSM
have done terrible things,
now known thanks to the above and whistleblowers,
both alive and murdered.

Agreed. I would eliminate all unions for government employees—and also take the special union protections out of our laws. Government shouldn’t have its thumb on employer-employee relations like that.

There was no way those at Benghazi could have gotten any air support.It was impossible.

Reasons being that hill/bama had let stolen shoulder fired rockets previously bought by gdaffi-- manpads-- get into the wrong terrorists hands. The thinking by both zero and the hildabeast at the time was that those terrorists invading the Benghazi enclave had those manpads and would have shot down any U.S. planes trying to help out Smith,Doherty or the rest. So it would have been impossible to get air support due to traitous actions by Hill/bama selling manpads to terrorists all over the place.
