Actually the embellishment seems to exist at your source
it cannot be independently confirmed that Godfather's was losing money Which means Bloomberg has no idea what the actually facts are and merely wishes it were not true. See real news stories, do not interject opinion into their "reporting" This article you cite is an opinion piece, not a news story. Nice try but rumor and innuendo are still rumor and innuendo no matter how desperately you want to believe them.

Now that's entertaining. You get caught incorrectly saying that Social Security benefits are taxable without any qualification whatsoever, and yet you still can't admit you were wrong. Social Security benefits aren't taxable unless you have other income. If you don't like it, talk to the IRS.

I'm just saying his hurdles are immense. True, he's not handpicked, never been to the Bilderbergers, not a member of the CFR, has no notable DC connections, etc. Yep, his hurdles are immense alright.

RE: Cut the pills, you will feel better.
C’mon, you’re better than that. Answer the man’s arguments, don’t attack him personally.
To: thePing
I went back and looked at some of the returns and in the year 2006 under the Cain plan we would have paid 4750.00 more in taxes There's absolutely no doubt that 9-9-9 is better for small businesses than 35-35-0. You probably need to check your numbers and/or publish them here.

We’ll see if he takes on Romney or not, and then we can talk more about “hand picked”.

Otherwise how can you say with such certainty that the reduced federal tax costs won't go towards the corporation's bottom line? Free market. A competitor will lower their prices and undercut them.

What's the matter, you don't like questions? Why do you favor 35-35-0 over 9-9-9?

Wow, now pointing out that you're incorrect in your knowledge of how Cain's tax plan affects seniors is lying about Cain. You really are a cult guy.
Cain's plan imposes a 9% sales tax on everyone, including senior citizens. Senior citizens now pay no income taxes on their Social Security benefits unless they have sufficient other income. So, your guy is running on a platform that increases the taxes paid by senior citizens collecting Social Security.
That'll turn out well. Senior citizens don't vote in large numbers. BWAHAHAHA!

He did not pass those savings on in the form of lower prices. Because the market didn't force him to at that time. Either you trust the free market to deliver the best prices or you favor socialism or some other government-run pricing system. There are no in-between choices.

They understand how business needs lower taxes and how it is in their interests to vote that way. But regardless, why do you favor 35-35-0 over 9-9-9 apart from your "concern" for seniors?

We'll see if he takes on Romney or not I agree, that's a legitimate concern. In the mean time you are welcome to put forward positive ideas about your favored candidate, whether Perry or other (I have no idea, and have nothing major against Perry)

Under Cain's plan, businesses pay taxes on "gross income less all investments, all purchases from other businesses and all dividends paid to shareholders." Payroll to employees are a deductible business expense now, but under Cain's plan payroll is a deduction only if you are in an "empowerment zone."
If a business pays $100,000 to its employees and at the end of the year has no money left over as "profit" (common in small businesses where any remaining profits go to the owners as corporate distributions), under the current system you pay no business income taxes. Under Cain's plan, the business pays $9,000 in business taxes on the payroll.

How about this. YOU finally answer the question posted to you days ago, I will start taking your commentary seriously.
Where is the Perry Presidential plan on anything?
Nice speeches full of soaring words and platitudes is not a Presidential agenda.
Taxes? Government Reform? Jobs? Education? Anything? Where is it Perrybots?
So instead of racing around lying about Cain, why don’t the Perry supporters try explaining to us why we should support Perry instead?
