A big business should not have to pay ANY taxes!!!
 
A company that provides 15,000 jobs, meaning there are now 15,000 new people to tax should not have to pay ANY taxes. What the hell does an employee do for this country except provide for themselves? Yea so its only fair they all pay taxes, right? A big business gives income to thousands of people, stimulates the economy, provides workers for the government to tax. Why the fuck should they have to get taxed more? Do you really want to tax the people that are providing the jobs? Think about people, wake the fuck up.

Is anybody on the same page as me or am I the only one left with any common sense these days?

You are an idiot. Why would you not tax companies? Exxon makes billions in profits, and you want to not tax them? You know how much money the government gives them for various things, without any taxes from them the US would be called "Exxonia"

The small corps in America employee more people than the big companies.

And who said "they" would be raising taxes on companies more? A correction in the tax code so the free market is fair, isn't raising taxes.

nobody should pay taxes ... period...

You need to get your road fixed, you knock on the doors of your neighbours, make a BBQ party, decide who to employ for the job, collect the funds from your neighbours and get it done ... If it is the highway that needs fixing, just knock on all the doors of the area, and repeat above ...

Easy no?






... shit, that looks like a government taxing the neighboors... shit :mad:

Ok and what if all those jobs they provide were gone? You think the government would loose very much tax revenue? Yea paying a little taxes are ok but if anything they should be the ones getting the tax cuts. You think they just wipe their asses with those profits? No, they go spend it on hotels, dinners, new cars, invest in new companies, etc... these guys really help stimulate the economy.


Give me one good reason they should be taxed more?

That's total bullshit. Big companies should have to pay up especially when they are making millions and billions and profits. What a dumb ass thing to say, not taxing big business. They have plenty of money leftover, they can still have their CEO's shitting on gold pots without a worry in their minds.

Again, who said they should be taxed more?

The rich do not trickle down, you would need to look at the middle class for that.

They take the profits, and ship it into offshore banks and companies, never provide back to America or the people, and get out of paying most taxes, making them pay less than me or you do.

Like the idea in principal but then how you will make up the additional budget shortfall (We already have one)?

2008 tax receipts (2.66 trillion)
* $1.25 trillion - Individual income tax (47%)
* $927.2 billion - Social Security and other payroll taxes (35%)
* $314.9 billion - Corporate income tax (12%)
* $68.1 billion - Excise taxes
* $29.2 billion - Customs duties
* $25.7 billion - Estate and gift taxes
* $50.7 billion - Other
.

I'm thinking it is large corporations that pay almost all the corporate taxes. Exxon Mobil paid $38.9 billion in taxes last year. I believe about 30% of those taxes were paid to the US. That one company alone paid roughly 4% of all corporate taxes collected by every company in the US. Most small corporations pass their earnings through to their owners who pay individual taxes.

Let's not forget either that it is we who own companies like Exxon, Wal Mart, McD's and so on.
