So the left has been doing those same things over and over for years and it still has never worked.

How about giving us our freedom back and get the Feds out of social managing everybody.

The rest of the would has figured out that lowering the Corporate Tax brings in more businesses.
Corporations Collect taxes from their customers.

Anyone that would advocate a minimum wage of 23/hr has no clue about how narrow profit margins are for businesses that employ minimum wage workers. That would force enormous layoffs and/or force the closure of thousands of businesses.

Nonsense, on steroids.

The purpose of the tax code is to generate sufficient revenue for the government to provide the services and functions that the Constitution demands. It has no legitimate role in distributing wealth one way or another.

"Tax cuts for the poor and middle class" is a nonsense concept, as almost half of the U.S. adult population pays NO FEDERAL INCOME TAX. Net of EITC, it's probably 55% of the adult population.

The corporate income tax itself is a bizarre and indefensible initiative that should be completely eliminated. Indeed, MOST U.S. CORPORATIONS pay no "income tax" at all, because they file under SubChapter S (which funnels the income to the tax returns of the owners).

A "corporation" is a fictitious legal "person," created for the protection of its owners. If there were no corporate income tax, the money now spent in taxes would be either (a) distributed to the owners as taxable dividends, (b) paid to the employees as taxable income, or (c) plowed back into the company. The only rational limitation would limit how much cash the corporation can hoard.

The appropriate minimum wage is ZERO, as any serious economist will confirm. The higher the minimum wage, the bigger the problem for those at the bottom. If the MW were $15 or more, no high school dropout in the country would be employed, and only the elite of HS grads (those having valuable trades or skills or an outstanding work ethic) would have jobs. Everyone else would be unemployed.

Trade and investment restrictions always backfire because they are STUPID. During the past 20 years I have worked for employers which were: German, English, Luxembourgian, Italian, and Japanese. Do you think the citizens of those countries were angry that their job was outsourced to me? Were they bothered by the investment in the U.S.? It's all ignorance and bliss.

But go ahead, remove the FICA limit. It might help.
