TAX BREAKS WORK: Boeings donates millions to local childrens hospital; Obama sues.

[rdean]

As nationwide budget protests continue this week, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner is prepared to unveil the Obama administration’s plan to lower the top corporate tax rate from the current 35 percent to less than 30 percent, and as low as 26 percent.

Why don't you mention that that also involves removing many features of the tax code so the effective rate is much higher for many companies? Which is why they are fighting it.
But that would be too honest for you.


Yes, the Obama Administration is the lap dog of unions. Preventing a company from moving from one state to another is just another brick in the road to socialism. 2o12 cannot come soon enough to get that incompetent prick out of the White House.

you sir, are free to howl about tax codes on the 'net until the cows come home

i would suggest that, short of reading the federal register, a superhuman feat of incomprehensible patience interpeting them, not to mention the risk of running out of ascii posting it all, that you are no less 'opinionated' than i

that said, you'll kindly respect my opinion(s), be them of my own hand, or that which is harvested on the issue if you're truly here for sanguine exchange

thank you

Why do corporations need even more tax breaks? CEO pay is zooming upward. The companies are making more now than ever before. Corporate profits are exploding. In fact, it's estimated they are sitting on more than 2 trillion. Some are using that money for acquisition to send even more jobs to China.

If the answer is to give them more and more, how come they aren't giving back? Could they have it any easier than they do now?

You don't need to read the federal register to figure this out, jerk off. A simple reading of any in depth article on the subject would be sufficient. But if you get all your news from CNBC headlines and watching Rachel Maddow what do you expect?

Do you believe corporations are "hurting" right now? That CEOs are "underpaid"? That profits are "down"?

What does that have to do with the tax code?

Or do you go by the mantra: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. If it stops moving, subsidize it?

Boeing gets tens of billions of tax payer funded contracts every year...

...you want a tax break?

Let's cut Boeing's government business in half.

 

[NYcarbineer]

So...can any libtard explain to me just why in the above scenario the government should become the leech/middle man in that transaction of funds from Boeing to the kids hospital? Why should the gov't be in the middle of that money flow?

Boeing is donating out of taxable profits, and thus avoiding the tax. Lower the corporate tax rates and there is less incentive to avoid taxes, less incentive to donate to a charity.

Besides, Boeing is one of the biggest beneficiaries from government spending. Your tax dollars go to Boeing by the tens of billions.

What a load of crap.

You and your ilk are in the Grover Norquist "I hate the government so starve the beast" crapola..completely forgetting that we have the type of lifestyle we have BECAUSE of a strong, mostly un corrupt, federal government. Rdean pointed out that Boeing has gotten big fucking fat government contracts..yet..zoom..right past that for you.

We are the government..and vice versa. The Constitution insures that. And it's expensive. You don't like it? Move.

(GASP!) But what would that do to our "Air Force"?

Uh no. We have the lifestyle we do despite the inroads gov't has made in our lives in the last 50 years.
And Boeing didnt get welfare. They sold goods to the gov't under competitive contracts.

On the topic of tax and government ...
Why can a US company manufacture everything over seas (lower wage) ... pack/load and ship to US ... pay tax ... unload and ship to stores for sale and it still ends up being cheaper than manufacturing here??

Our Air Force that is defending other countries for free wouild either be replaced by their air forces, or they would go without.

With the money Boeing saves on lower taxes, they can do things like donate millions to schools and hospitals.

Or not.

The fatal flaw of trickle down economics.

 

[NYcarbineer]

Did Boeing not make millions in donations in the past?

Does the OP want to make that case? It would help your point, such as it is.

OK
So what do you think they're going to do with the savings?

What do you think they are going to do?

Corporations are sitting on over two trillion in capital according to Business-week and Forbes. Where are the jobs?

TAX BREAKS WORK

The mantra of those most benefited by the tax breaks.

There really is no debate at this point is there? The Bush tax breaks unfairly benefit the already wealthy. The evidence is all around, it's everwhere.
