Beam me to Planet Gore !
Is it still legal to question the Messiah?
“But the companies that have to pay for permits will pass that cost on to consumers in the form of higher prices for electricity and other products.”
The increase in costs will be whatever the tax is, plus what the exec has to pay as a result of the increase in goods or services on themselves as well. No one taxed will take the hit. This is how you do away with the middle class. The rich stay the same but relative to the poor, who lose bigtime, they are ‘richer’. Capitalism is the only game in town where everyone wins.
I saw all of these plans in the incubator when I majored in Political Science at Indiana University from 1977-1981. At the time, it was a dogma preached by academic kooks to lazy students (like me) who didn’t want to tackle a challenging degree. I know what this communist dogma calls for; the intentional destruction of the American capitalist system, private property, individual liberty, religion, and the Constitutional Republic. Once they have destroyed all, it will be replaced with a communist paradise. At the time, I thought “yeah, right.”
Today, the students who drank the kool-ade have firmly grasped the levers of power in this country.
no no no no no - businesses will pay those taxes out of thin air, or out of the “ill-gotten gains” bag they keep to give themselves bonuses. Money is evil unless the government spends it, then it’s magic.
I don’t about you guys, but the best part of this article is that we are now seeing the mainstream media criticize Obama. That’s something I thought that I would never see. Just a few minutes ago, I read an AP story saying that this is Obama’s economy now, and he is responsible for the problem.
If the mainstream media is dissing Obama at this stage of his presidency, can public opinion be far behind?
IF there’s a silver lining in all this, it is that the knowledge that WE pay business taxes will finally bubble to the surface.
All taxes come from the populace, either directly or indirectly.
Taxes on businesses and corporations are passed onto consumers of their goods or services.
Business needs tax breaks not more tax burden. Obama sure doesn’t understand economics, does he?
Watch prices rise.
And BTW, start stocking up on groceries.
