End all tax shelters thereby solving the nation's debt and the government won't need to print money.

Business will really be booming with no incentives

By leading to the beginning of something good maybe?

That logic is like actively seeking to become a heroin addict so something positive can result from detox and kicking the habit.

Capitalism is a pretty weak ideology if it can succeed only by having government spend more than it can tax.

I can't imagine anybody WANTS to work. I don't want to work.

I'd not work at all if I could afford it.

Naturally, Breitbart has proof somewhere that Obama is responsible for young people not wanting to work.


:lol:



Forgive him. He's not the hardest ice cube in the tray. Too funny though...in one sentence, they don't want to work and the next sentence it's because Obama took the jobs. Perhaps he should make up his mind.

Ah yes. It benefits the seller, but not the user. So how does the government exercise its obligation to protect the public interest by selling heroin?
Benefits the heck out of the drug enforcement agencies and their corporate contractors, too.

If the government sells heroin, we can reduce the budget deficit by taking in more revenue and spending less on drug enforcement cowboys.

But what about the for profit prisons? They'll loose a good portion of their inmates, make less money, pay less taxes, donate to less political parties, etc etc etc.

Will they be able to recoup that loss?

Sure. They can hire out to Saudi Arabia and the UAE as mercenaries.

Businesses and wealthy elites do not need to shelter over $30 trillion overseas. There is no evidence whatsoever that this benefits society or spurs economic growth in any way. On the contrary, the trickle down theory has been proven to be a total farce.

Geez champ, you sound like you're still butthurt.

Maybe if you didn't go out of your to be a dick for no reason, you wouldn't get railed so often.

Give'er a try, you might like it.

Tell that to Haliburton, they now HQ in the UAE.

Hell, Burger King (group) recently announced that if the acquisition goes through, they will relocate their HQ to Ontario, specifically for tax purposes.

Fool yourself all you like goph, but understand that it is only you that is buying into this
