Corporations don't pay taxes, they just collect the money from their
customers, tack on some profit and pass it on in the cost of the
product.

It is just a way to put a hidden tax on the consumer, similar to a
VAT. The only problem is you punish the American company for doing all
of it's business inside the US. If you are a multinational, it is very
easy to make all of your "profit" in another country. Hence the
companies you listed did not make a "US profit".

Really... the CEOs don't pay taxes either, apparently. Nobody has
"punished" companies. Their effective tax rate is quite low. Nice try
with the right wing agenda talking point though.

Keep you head up your parrots ass Polly.

This world is now competing on taxes and USA is losing fast. Fact is
you have a big fat out of control debt corruption government that
doesn't give a rates ass about the people, they only care about being
bigger.

And the more the government gets, the less the people get. No amount of
fleabegging is going to change reality, USA is bankrupt. Don't give up
your job.

Is that where you find your head... up your ass?

You just got done agreeing the CalifIll that other places have higher
tax rates. Now, you're claiming the opposite. You're plain stupid.

Hey, raise taxes on EVERYONE. So evil politicians like Obama can't pit
greedy Americans against producing Americans for his lust of power.

That way every voter feels the pain, the socialist way.

The middle class and the poor are already feeling the pain. It's time
to tax the rich, so they can feel some, but that Socialist Warren
Buffet agrees, so it must be wrong.

He is just a senile old fool with the IRS up his ass and the deal is
"tax me more" for a easy bye.

Uh huh... that senile old fool makes you look microscopic in every
aspect of your life.
