Under Republican deregulation, investment & maintenance have been forgone in favour of extracting profits..<br /><br />The US's foreign debt has been almost entirely created since Reagan in 1981 -- by policies of "unfunded tax cuts". Clinton was the only president who brought the deficit back down. America's been captured by "vulture capital", who want to extract every last ounce of capital & run the business into the ground.<br /><br />This kind of management spells death for a company. America should not be allowed to fail, in the same way.<br /><br />These are the facts.. draw your own picture. All the rest is BS, lies & politics.<br /><br /><a href="http://stratpark.com/us/us-deficit-where-did-it-come-from/" rel="nofollow">http://stratpark.com/us/us-deficit-where-did-it-come-from/</a>Thomas Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06287256406464617259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7895164153505105997.post-55727650095691459572012-02-28T06:36:57.256-08:002012-02-28T06:36:57.256-08:00Should C-corporations and S-corporations both be t...Should C-corporations and S-corporations both be taxed at the same rate of 28%?<br /><br />And should dividends and capital gains also be taxed at 28%? <br /><br />And should the top marginal income bracket for individuals who own sole proprietorships also be taxed at 28%?<br /><br />"Many analysts believe that the tax treatment among different forms of business organization ought to be equalized. The White <br />House-Treasury report estimates that the effective marginal tax rate on new investments is 32.3 percent for C-corporations and only 26.4 percent for pass-through entities. This distortion biases economic decision-making and is ultimately bad for growth."<br /><br />http://economix.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/02/28/fitting-the-tax-code-to-todays-businesses/?partner=rss&emc=rssBud Meyershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02065020063363023395noreply@blogger.com
