“We made a serious mistake by supporting every tax cut these people made. The article shows a list of companies stabbing us in the back.”

If Biden wins they will find that he will turn AOC and Elizabeth Warren loose on the tax code. The tribute they’ve paid to social justice organizations and Democrat politicians, will not allow them to escape the wrath of the woke tyrants who are coming after them.

For many years the RINO Republicans who serve the Chamber of Commerce have insisted it is the customers of corporations who pay the corporate taxes, not the corporations. I notice the RINO Senators and Congressmen are silent as mayhem occurs in the streets of American cities. The rioters, destroying small businesses, are openly funded and supported by the C suite executives of the US based multinationals who have bought and paid for GOP politicians for decades. Not one GOP Senator or Congresscritter is complaining about “customer” money being used to fund the socialist agenda.

Perhaps the RINOS can see the end game approaching. AOC, Elizabeth Warren and their ilk will not share crumbs with the opposition party if they control the House, Senate and White House. The Chamber of Commerce and C-suite have shown how quickly they will roll over and dig deeply when the mob goes on a rampage. When the day comes the GOP loses the House, Senate, and the White House the Marxists will demand corporate American cut off all funding of the GOP and conservative groups. Without funding, there is no opposition.

If you don’t believe it can and will happen, I present one exhibit — Chick fil A. A family run company whose customers backed it to the hilt a few years ago when the company was attacked by the gay mafia. Last year, it collapsed like a cheap house of cards when told by the leftists to defund Christian groups and fund evil. They were privately held, so no Wall Street pressure, and had the backing of their loyal customers. Why did they cave and do it so shamelessly? If Chick fil A will bow down, you can bet the entire Fortune 500 is asking where to send the checks and how big to write them.

The thing that triggered these riots was the MSM reporting of the Floyd demise and spiking the facts behind his condition at the time. Because of that getting those facts out are desperately needed

The democrat controlled media racist killing reporting was a deliberate miss portraying of the six foot seven inch 200 plus pound Floyd as an innocent black who was being forceably restrained because he was black not because he was resisting arrest.When He was legitimately arrested for passing a counterfeit $20 dollar bill he was resisting arrest and was a threat if not secured. But the media was not mentioning his size or reporting that Floyd was removed from a squad car because he was acting up under the influence of drugs and also later was discovered to have COVID 19. Which suggests his physical condition may have led to his death which the media turned into a murder change and a charge of serious abuse by police because of police efforts that were tried to get him who under control.

If Obama had urged blacks to believe in the justice system and comply with the police would we be confronting his use of creating racial division now ?
The results of politically induced miss reporting incidents where blacks have resisted legitimate arrest began to be used earlier during and after the post Zimmmerman trial, then on to the Ferguson episode. Obama’s abuse of the “Bully Pulpit” which seemed to promote resistance to legitimate arrest led to black gangs attacking non blacks found innocently traversing black neighborhoods and to a score of murders or life changing injuries and later attacks of theft and vandalism on local businesses as well as attacks and murders of police officers during that period

My wife is a bigshot in the radio world. For the last 10 years she has been meeting with advertisement agency girls right out of college. Every last one of them has been spewing the same talking points.

“The millennial demographic is only interested in buying from companies that present a social justice message.”

My wife pushes them to provide documentation for this claim. They have none. She ends the meeting.

They are simply spouting what they were told to say in college. Many companies that do not have someone like my wife, fall for it.

Tax them so the government will have more money to spend and their shareholders will be no better off?

No. Disallow their charitable donations and require the corporations either to invest their earnings or to pass them through to their shareholders.

If you will notice everyone on this thread is no longer an ally of corporate America. No one here defends them.No one here really disagrees with the idea that they should pay more taxes due to them stabbing us in the back repeatedly. This would not of happened just a couple of years ago. In fact it would of been unthinkable. I think the Chamber of Commerce types should pay attention to this!

Actually, that didn't trigger them.

It was just the pretext.

They were going to use Aubery but this has much better video.

This has been in the works since election night 2016.

Spygate, the Dossier, Russia, Russia, Russia didn't work, Stormy Daniels, Ukraine, Michael Flynn...none of it worked.

This has always been there, this "civil unrest", this "yearning for social justice".

soetoro / jarrett / soros started planning this when odungo was still in office.

How many times did "black lies matter" sit in the Oval Office with them and laugh at how stupid White people could be?

*********
Taxing them and giving US the tax cut because we are conservative, rather than giving the money to the shareholders who built the companies, is the Marxist approach.
