There are healthy post histories the last couple months filled with angst and name calling over breaks for big business.



Obama's plan would result in a higher rate on big business and a lower rate on small business.


Basically, your /whaarggbhl is as misplaced as ever.

Wait, so now you're against cutting corporate taxes?



No, it means he's pro-Obamawhine.

Stop being so negative.

So a higher rate on big businesses is what LWNs want? Just asking, its hard to follow from day to day.

Moe has never been interested in real discussion and would rather obfuscate facts and act like an all around ass. He's essentially stuck in the 2004 "I R Playing the Outpost Game!" version of things and never really broke out of it.

That game is old and broken. Most of us evolved. Some didn't.

LWNs want higher capital gains tax rates. In order to do that both politically and economically it makes sense to also address corporate taxation.


Obviously not all liberals will agree with that but it makes sense. When positions are not just driven by blind ideology one can make such proposals. This may make it hard for some to understand.

Pretty sure most people (not including RWN's of course) simply want to insure that big companies pay SOME income tax.

So yes we do want them to pay more, since some is more than none.

Lowering the rate, but cutting out a lot of the ridiculous loopholes seems fairly straightforward, easily understood, and moderate to me.

Obama said he is addressing corporate tax rates to make us more competative internationally. I think we already have the second highest corporate tax rate in the world, will have to check that. Is raising the effective tax rate on businesses the way to go. I'm asking these questions because it appears that people are pleased that the overall tax rate would be higher, and it seemed to me that Obama wanted to make us more competative by reducing corporate taxes, yet some are claiming they will be higher. At the end of the day, is this going to be a further hinderance or an asset to the expansion of businesses in the US, both foreign and home-grown?

You're an LWN, I'm asking you the same questions I asked Sin.
