You and I vote in the House of Representatives and Senate. The House is where all money bills arise. Taxes are proposed by either house, and if passed through Congress, go to the President.
If we don’t like the tax code, we need to change the tax writers. Additionally, there has been significant crony capitalism under Obama, and let’s hope it stops under the new House and Senate.
What crimes and which corporations are “never held responsible.” Please name them and their scams. If you are talking about using a double Irish, or sheltering, or any other lawful method of tax avoidance, why do you care? Besides, every penny in corporate tax comes right out of your pocket. In my opinion, corporate tax should be abolished, as it only serves to raise prices on all goods. Do you think GE cares about your mortgage interest deduction, or giving your underwear to charity (ala Bill Clinton)? We all avoid tax wherever lawful exemptions exist.
Finally, the job of a police officer is to enforce the law. Illegal distribution is just that. If we are to live in a society of laws, all laws must be obeyed and enforced. We see what happens when one branch of the government selectively refuses to enforce existing law.
If we don’t like the laws, we should vote in people to change them.
Oh sure, that's going to happen Mr. tutu...
Since Americans have begged, screamed, protested and voted for relief from this punitive tax system, bloated ever expanding controlling government and thing like open lawless borders, which is now undermining and compromising our entire system, right down to our electoral process...
Boy howdy, we're just gunna change it...You betcha!
