So what do you tell those AMERICANS--you know, folks like you--who just saw their retirement nest egg get nuked because you decided that companies owe more to the government than paying their taxes?
They're on their own!
Well, that's what you just told millions of Americans--they're on their own, and kiss their retirement nest egg good-bye. You think they're going to vote for your re-election after you just completely cratered the stock market, and sentenced them to eating Alpo for the rest of their lives? Hell, do you think that any politician who did that is going to LIVE to see the next election?
No Pooh, I don't think any company owes anything to the government. I do think it owes something to the society that was reponsible for creating the conditions that let them succeed. You know, your fellow Americans! It's called a social contract.
How can you expect any American fighting man to put himself in harms way to protect the interests of a company that will not even want to employ him? That is not the America I served!
