Dear sitetest

Do you actually believe that there is not an alternative to the current tax code? I have asked you repeatedly to give us your answer to the goliath and you have done nothing more than waffle. Spin, spin, spin. Are you going to continue to spin? YES YOU ARE, aren't you?

Respect has to be earned. With my most sincere salutations:

Dear groanup,

At this point, the proponents of the NSRT have made assertions that are false, groanup. See the running discussion that I'm having with pigdog about where we're going to find all those corporate income taxes that are being paid that can be returned to the consumers.

It's gotten pretty disgusting that no one from your side of this debate can honestly step forward and admit that pigdog's gone pretty far off track here. He can't even figure out how corporate income taxes are actually calculated.

If you want me discuss topics that are important to you, the least you can do is return the conversation to a position of intellectual integrity.

The cessation of federal corporate income taxes is a genuine area of savings in the NSRT, but it would help if folks would be honest about the levels involved.

I've already posted a smattering of actual financial results from major corporations that support my assertion that the amount of federal corporate income taxes to be saved is very modest.

Pigdog disagrees. I've challenged him to show me the Fortune 500 companies where the levels of this tax rise to 11% of total revenues. Because, you know what, groanup? If lots and lots of big companies were really sending in that kind of money for the federal corporate income tax, I'd concede that you folks have a major argument there.

But I've shown every evidence against it, and I'm challenging pigdog to show his evidence, REAL EVIDENCE from the financial data of Fortune 500 companies, to prove it.

If you want to discuss your issues, then call on pigdog to take up the challenge.
