No, I don’t mean you don’t pay taxes. And yeah, corporations pass along tax costs down to the final end user. But what guarantee does that get that 0 corp. tax means poor people are going to benefit in the long run? None.
There might be a few more jobs, but the industrial base is shot to hell. It isn’t coming back.
Business generated revenue might be able to stem the debt and even pay it down. But they will raise taxes some way, some how.
EVERYBODY bitches about paying any taxes. But the majority in this country are greedy, self-serving SOB’s unwilling to do anything that might mean helping their neighbors, towns, ciities, states, or country.
It’s all me Me ME!
If anything happens, I think it might as well be the reset button.
The disparity between the rich and poor is increasing.
What is poor man going to do when he can no longer feed , house, and clothe his family? He’s going to crawl off in a hole and die?
I think not.
He’s gong to climb up on rich man’s hill, pop a cap in him, move into his house, screw his wife, and eat his food.
I don’t pretend to have an answer.
But there are a hell of a lot of people of every stripe, in this country, who aren’t worth the paper they are printed on.
I do share your anger. I think these CEO’s with their hundred million dollar paychecks are the problem. I’ve been in the game long enough to know that politics have just as much to do with someone rising to the top as geniue ability. But like you I don’t have a good answer. I don’t want the government telling people what they should get paid. I think people have to police themselves, unfortunately they are doing a bad job of it.
