Huffington Post was sold for $315,000,000 to AOL. Where is the screaming? The Marxist hand wringing?

Unless I’m mistaken, (and I may be), every time Gov’t has lowered tax rates, it ends up taking in more in tax revenues.

Arianna Huffington is an angry woman scorned who got some folks together to make a website so she could rant against her EX and his conservative associates and for that she made more money in two years that most people would dare to dream of ...money that she obviously shares with no charitable endeavors.

I guess they forgot to mention the daughter of a Democrat Senator (or something) who was doing the same thing.

The sole purpose of a business is to make profits for their investors.

It’s not a charity.

The Huffington Post was built on the backs of low wage scribes!

Even the most BASIC economic formula says maximize profit.
It also says cut the waste.

Why would any business person engage in business where NOT ONLY are a large portion of profits seized by the govt, but then the same govt ABUSIVELY WASTES this profit by funneling it to programs that ultimately help destroy these same businesses?

No matter what party any corporation or business affiliates itself with, one thing is for sure, losing profit will eventually destroy it

This government reminds me a lot of the one in Venezuela, except they are even less competent (so far) and can’t just print and spend money that doesn’t exist.

The nationalized oil sector has tens of thousands of surplus employees, ‘jobs’ for loyal Chavistas. They should be raking in the dough but they are so incompetent the country is impoverished.
