Corporate Tax Revenue Came In 31% Below Predictions, And It's Getting Worse

It is good when American pay less taxes. Especially the immoral corporate tax.

The stupid Moon Bats think the corporate tax is revenue from a few fat cats. They think that because they don't know a damn thing about Economics. The corporate tax is a tax on all Americans that buy anything made a corporation, which are most things.

We need to cut back on the size of that filthy bloated Federal government and do away with both the income tax and the corporate tax. We would be a much better country.
 
Wages have stagnated...offshoring continues space...the tax cut revenue was used for stock buybacks, enriching the corporations and their rich cronies....the national debt is exploding, while the economy teeters...

The tax cuts have been an abject failure, thus far. Well, except for very rich people. Thank goodness we are looking out for them.
/——-/ That’s just your opinion. Meaningless

As is yours!
 
Exactly, corporations got the lions share of the tax cuts, therefore tax revenues from CORPORATIONS fell!!!!
MAGA!

This is pretty simple stuff, Aldo! If you got a hundred dollars in revenue from A (which are corporations) and fifty dollars in revenue from B (which are individual taxpayers) with the previous tax structure...then because of a tax structure, A gave you eighty dollars in revenue and B gave you eighty dollars in revenue...which tax structure brought in more revenue?


Oh I get it. Thank God the corporations are paying less and we are paying more.

MAGA!!!

Do you understand WHY we're paying more? It's because we're MAKING more! I know this whole "ECONOMICS" thing is hard for you liberals to grasp but it's really not that complicated!


Glad to know ewe feel great about the middle class never getting ahead and your beloved corporations raping the working class even more
It just doesn't get more MAGA than that!
MAGA!!!!

The middle class is doing a whole lot better under this President than they did under the previous one. They've got jobs for starters and they're getting pay raises. Consumer confidence is way up. I know you on the left don't want to admit it but Trump has been hitting it out of the park when it comes to the economy and jobs.


He has boosted the economy with the most out of control spending ever seen in a non recession economy.
Glad you admit you are all for big gubnint!

/——/ But but but corporate tax cuts....


Bbbbbbbbuuuuuuttttt Obama!
 
And he still bears responsibility when he fails to do so and signs it.

Stop releasing powerful politicians of their actions because other politicians said mean or false shit. That is politics and every single president plays the same game. If they believe in what they are doing then taking a little heat to solve some of the most difficult problems this nation currently faces is a very small price.

Unfortunately, there has not been a president with principals and balls in forever.
/——/ Look how long the Trump shutdown lasted and democRATs refused to budge. Trump saw people getting hurst so he signed. Now give it up Bozo.

Are you an intern at the Ministry of Truth?
/——/ So tell us how Libs and the MSM reacted to the Trump Shutdown. Go ahead tinker bell

I don't speak for all liberals or the MSM, I speak for myself (unlike RW Hacks like you who follow Rule #1: "Follow the Leader or be tossed under the bus").

In the future address me as Mr. Wry, or Sir, being servile to Trump is necessary and sufficient to define your status in the neighborhood as a bottom dweller.

Trump weaponized our economy by shutting down the government, he behavior is

/——/ I’ll address you as Cupcake. And thank you for making my point. Blaming ANY president for the deficit when he is powerless to stop except by harming the American people is completely dishonest.

You wouldn't to my face, but like most cowards who post here you hide behind a keyboard and can say or be whatever fantasy strikes you at the moment.

You asked a question, I responded with a clear and concise explanation how I viewed Trump's behavior, to wit:

"tantamount to a five year old taking his ball away from a game when he didn't get his way".

LOL, this ^^^ is the most absurd / ridiculous post of the year.

STATEMENT: We need to cut back on the size of that filthy bloated Federal government and do away with both the income tax and the corporate tax. We would be a much better country

RESPONSE: Our republic would in a few short years turn into a pure Plutocracy, without any similarity to a Democratic Republic. Oligarchs would dominate the legislature - many are already wealthy - the Supreme Court has already supported the wealthy and special interests at the expense of democracy (Citizens United, weakening the voters right act) and Trump will become the model for an imperial presidency.

You are confused Moon Bat. We don't need to spending $4.5 trillion a year for the fucking cost of the bloated Federal government. Expenditures of about $1.5 trillion a year would pay for defense and a few other necessary Federal functions.

The $4.5 trillion is more than the GDP of all but a few other countries on the face of the earth. Combined with the other State and local taxes almost 40% of the US GDP goes for the friggin cost of government and that is way too much.

We would be much more prosperous if we had far less government. We can spend the money we make a lot better than giving it away to some stupid bureaucrat, whose boss is a corrupt politician elected by special interest groups.

We certainly need to stop taking money from the people that earn it and giving it away to the shitheads that didn't earn it. No more welfare, entitlements, bailouts, grants or subsidies.

Your thinking is idiotic, which is why Libertarian Party is and will remain a minor political party.

How many jobs would disappear if you had your way? How many homes would be abandoned? 2007 would seem like a small recession?

Your final paragraph defines you as both a callous conservative and a concrete thinker. The consequences both intended - making the poor, aged, infirm and children miserable - and unintended, higher crime, huge ghettos, rusted and failing infrastructure and the lack of enforcement to regulate (FDA, CDC, ERA) will create the likelihood of disease.

I suggest you tune out the Libertarian Message and tune into Sesame Street. It's on a level where you might learn some valuable lessons, about community, diversity and in a few episodes you might develop a moral compass.

You are confused Moon Bat. You stupid Moon Bats are as ignorant of Economics as you are in Biology, Climate Science, History, Ethics and the Constitution. You just proved it.

You are an idiot that thinks a bureaucrat can better spend the money that you make better than yourself. However, maybe in you case that is the truth. It is not in my case or the case of any productive American

The cost of government in this country is way out of control. In most families the combined cost of government is the single greatest family expenditure in the year when you include everything.

What do we get for harming the economy with a big bloated government? We get shit like a Department of Education that before the department was established the US was number one in the world in education and now we are like 20th or something. The greedy Teacher's union make out like bandits but the students don't get jackshit.

We get 60 million Americans on some kind of welfare include the filthy ass Illegals that the Liberals allowed to flood in here to vote Democrat.

We get moeny going to Planned Parenthood to slaughter babies and sell their body parts.

We get the EPA that pollutes rivers with dumb management.

We get bailouts of failed companies in order to protect the UAW that contributed hundreds of millions of dollars to Obama's campaign.

We get NASA and NOAA that became Obama shrills for that silly AGW bullshit.

We get subsidies to failed companies like Solyndra, whose bosses were Democrat campaign bundlers and got tremendous government subsided bonuses.

We get Social Security that is a Ponzi scheme that cost every wage earning Americans 7.5% of their wages and their employers another 7.5% and we have millions of welfare queens and Illegals on bogus disability paid for out of that money.

We get a FBI that uses its power to try to undermine an duly elected President.

We get a Department of Internal Revenue that uses its power to disenfranchise a grass root Conservative political movement.

We get an ATF that sells guns to the Mexican Drug Cartel in the hopes that the guns will make their way back to the US and can be used as an excuse to curtail the right to keep and bear arms.

The list of failed government expenditures is very long and if you are still confused about it I can post more examples.

However, I don't think you are interested. You are a stupid Moon Bat that justifies this big bloated out of control debt ridden monstrosity of a government and would love to it even bigger. You can't fix that level of stupidity.

Take your filthy socialism mindset and cram it up your Libard ass. That mindset has destroyed countries and you are hell bent on destroying this country to satisfy your greed.

How about you pay your bills and I will pay mine and we leave the oppressive government out of it? Sounds good?
 
/——/ Republican presidents always have to rebuild the military after democRATs destroy it. Hence the extra spending. BTW he’s cutting the size of Gubmint elsewhere Trump keeps his pledge to shrink size of government

But he is still spending more money than ever before. Cutting one area and adding to another area does not count as spending.

Also, the DOD budget was not gutted as much as you like to pretend. The DOD budget under Obama was 190% more than under Bush II

The DOD budget under Obama was 190% more than under Bush II

Link?

Why Military Spending Is More Than You Think It Is

2002 was 362, 2003 was 456. I do apologize though, the wife was hurrying me out the door, it was only 145% not, 190. My bad.

Or all of Bush's years to all of Obama's years?

Please clarify.

The yellow line was the change in presidency. Sorry it was a little messy.

All of Bush II's years add up to $3,542.60 billion

All of Obama's years add up to $6,342.70 billion.

The larger number is 79% more, not 145% more.

You are killing me gator :D

The exact percentage is not all that relevant though - the fact that military spending has not really decreased is a solid point and to say it was gutted (or needs to be 'rebuilt' after the democrats destroyed it) pretty much implies deep cuts. I do not see how anyone can justify Trumps massive spending.
