Kill the Corporate Tax to Help Workers

Author should get real. This wasn't caused by Corporate tax and it won't be solved by no corporate tax. Some corporations pay no income tax but they still laid off Americans and hired in other lands.

When people are supported by business, they vote Republican. When they aren't, they vote for government support and for Democrats.

The cost incurred by corporations to "pay no income tax" is more than substantial, as is the cost of compliance by those corporations who do pay income tax. All those wasted gazillions would be better spent in production, R&D, distribution, expansion, etc., etc., (all of which translates to more jobs).

There will never be a better time to engage American people on the topic of anti-American, anti-business policies than right now, when the work force participation rate for most categories of workers is at record lows; worse than the Great Depression for most.

And it is only going to get worse until massive changes are implemented.

And bringing about any or many of those massive changes is going to require an all-out campaign against socialism and the damage it has caused our economy.

It’s been a long time since the typical American worker received a raise in her real pay. In fact, average weekly earnings, exclusive of fringe benefits but adjusted for inflation, are 10 percent lower today than they were in 1966.

Why would you exclude fringe benefits?

Exclusive of the calories from "sugared soft-drinks", Americans consume 10% fewer calories than we did in 1966. LOL!
