The 0% corporate rate might be revenue neutral or losing, but it will definitely create many more jobs here than a 9% corporate tax rate

And the perfect should not be the enemy of the good.

The difference is a zero tax rate is a politically impossible to archive without an intermediate step. A 9% tax rate is a step to a zero rate. You cannot eat the whole elephant in one bite. Our political system is evolutionary, not revolutionary.

>And the perfect [candidate] should not be the enemy of the good.

Agreed.

I’m going to copy & paste my own quote from another thread regarding the current Republican hopefuls:

If they loved country more than their own selves and could see past winning the party’s nomination, they would agree to try and top each other by condemning Obama’s policies, rather than by slitting each other’s throats.

Do you realize that by refusing to consider anything that does not fit your defeinition of politicla prefection, you are setting up a situation where you will get nothing done leaving the status quo in place?

Politics is a game of inches, not all or nothing Hail Mary heroic plays.

Don't make the perfect the enemy of the good.
