now that sounds downright un’murikun!

Something just occurred to me:

If corporations enjoy “personhood,” shouldn’t they pay the higher personal income tax rates?

Abolish Corporate Personhood

Yes, and they legally avoid most corporate tax. That’s why the corporate tax rate even though it’s relatively high compared to other countries, it’s one of the lowest in the world compared to the annual GDP because most corporations use loopholes to avoid paying tax.

We should take every tax break away from the companies that don’t hire and do business here. They already hide most of their profits in offshore accounts anyway.

I really hope they don’t rule in favor of overturning.

Yeah. They think it’s ok to suck up to corporations, even coddle them. I remember one of the women who was at a McCain/Palin gathering before the election was taking the corporations’ side, saying “Don’t you know where you get all your jobs from? You can’t tax corporations anymore, we won’t have any jobs.”

It’s this kind of ridiculous mentality that enables corporations to send jobs overseas to take advantage of slave wage labor and avoid nearly all taxes by registering offshore.

I think if they want to register offshore, and send all the jobs to China and India, they shouldn’t be allowed to be an American corporation, and they should be taxed at a higher rate, not a lower rate.

They seem to completely lose that point. They all seem to have perfected the sucking at the teat part.

It doesn’t seem to upset Murrikans that conservatives suck at the teat of their corporate masters. That’s the thing I can’t understand.

This IS a big case, one that will surely tell us how the winger judges view the future interests of corporate America in our political system.
