Obama wants lower corporate tax rates

Funny how conservative Obama tries to be during election year:

Obama corporate taxes: He would slash 'dozens' of tax breaks - Feb. 22, 2012



Obama is admitting that conservatives are right, lower taxes is better for the economy.

It's a concern on both sides of the aisle that tax loopholes are detrimental.

Did he do it for political reasons? Probably, but it's a smarter plan than simply lowering the rate and ignoring the problematic tax code.

So now you agree we were right all along.

:lol:

Damn, all it took to become a good idea was for a (D) to put his stamp on it.


I love the taste of hypocracy in the morning.

mmm

taste like well done toast.

And Chris was right all along that you guys would try and spin this negative.

You guys are so filled with hate for youir President that you refuse to acknowledge when he does something you think is right and agree with. Why is that? :confused:

I didn't spin anything into a neg

I don't hate the Pres

I thought I was pretty clear that I thought this was a good thing.

How did you miss all 3?

I'll be clear for those that think I was unclear; Obama did what we conservatives have been asking all along. And all that time, you liberals were calling us evil, demanding to know why we hated poor people and why we bow to the rich, [it's now vogue to say 1%].

so why is it a good idea now and why are you calling for obamas head since he clearly, by your standards, hates the poor and bows to the rich?

So how exactly am I being hypocritical? I favor the plan because it targets tax loopholes.

Shrinks government. You are against that, fully.
Lowers the tax rate on corporations. you are maniacally against that.

but like I said, the idea has a (D) on it.

What LOOPHOLES?

Or doesn't it really matter?

I read about closing loopholes all the time.

Sadly no details ever seem to be forthcoming.

Anybody want to venture a guess what loopholes are going to be closed?

you mean like the idea of individual mandates for health insurance originally being a republican plan, straight out of the heritage foundation, that magically became "socialist" and "unconstitutional" as soon as it no longer had an (R) on it?

that kind of hypocritical? :eusa_whistle:

I don't like the lowering of the corporate tax rate. However in this case, it keeps corps from taking advantage of loopholes, which is worse.

How many republicans that you know that have been calling for an insurance mandate???

Provide me quotes of any, you dumb cow.
 
Osama Hussien Obama doesn't want to lower shit. It's all Kabuki theater.

We should get rid of many loopholes, and lower rates, but we will not.
 
WHAT LOOPHOLES?

My god folks, one can't evaluate the benefits of a policy if one doesn't actually know ANY DETAILS, can one?
 
Well golly gee, it only took him THREE years to come up this, and surprise surprise it happens to be a election year...


Actually, from what I understand, he's had this plan ready to go for quite awhile, he just waited until the election year to spring it. And I hear he's coming out with a major speech on energy in a coupla days; he must think he American electorate is awfully dumb.

Yup. Heard the same thing.

This has been in Geitners office for months now.

Funny how Barry wants to cut the corporate taxs and get rid of tax loopholes, something he should have done long ago to improve the economy, now that its election time.

Apprantly now is the RIGHT time.
 
How about just taking all the loopholes away. In corporate tax, in personal tax - in ALL tax.

Hell, I would actually support a no cooperate tax. The consumers like you and me are the ones that pay that tax anyway. Not the corporation. It is just moved to the little guy that buys the widget.

Its funny he only wants to get rid of "a dozen or so" of the 130+ "tax loopholes". So evidently most are OK. Would be interesting to know exactly which are OK and which he has a problem with.
 
To Close Tax Loopholes, Obama Would Open New Ones : NPR
"The administration is not making sense," says Martin Sullivan, contributing editor at publisher Tax Analysts. "The whole idea of corporate tax reform is to get rid of loopholes, and this plan is adding loopholes back in."
Other economists oppose a separate plank of the Obama plan: a minimum tax on foreign earnings of U.S. multinational companies. No other country imposes such a tax on its companies, they note. U.S. businesses would face a competitive disadvantage.
Among the skeptics is Obama's own former economic adviser, Christina Romer, an economics professor at the University of California, Berkeley. In a column this month in The New York Times, Romer argued that there was no economic justification for the government to favor manufacturers over service-oriented companies.

"Our earnings from exporting architectural plans for a building in Shanghai are as real as those from exporting cars to Canada," Romer wrote.
The minimum tax proposal for international earnings "is totally misguided both from a competitive standpoint and a jobs standpoint," said Gary Hufbauer, a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics. "Obama's plan, if enacted, will shrink the U.S. footprint in world markets and lose jobs."

It was never socialistic - that's a single payer system. It is crony capitalism at its worst. And it did not become unconstitutional after the democrats took it up, it was always that way and one of the central reasons that I cannot, in good conscience, vote for Romney. He still stands by what he did AND berates Obama for doing the same thing. In the general, that is going to be devastating too.
 
Anybody here familiar with the phrase quid pro quo?

Apparently some of you aren't.
