The vast majority of new jobs since Obama has been president are very low paying ones. High paying jobs like the Keystone Pipeline and oil drilling have been stopped by Obama as much as he can stop them.

...as opposed to...? He understands how big business works in terms of bankrupting them for enormous personal profit.

If the running and managing of his campaign is any example of how Romney runs things...OMG

IF he truly loved his country, WHY is it that when he was of age and his country was involved in a war in Vietnam that HE supported, HE went to France instead? It appears HE loves his country just as long as HE can let others do the dirty work.

Being that our illustrious conservative leaning SCOTUS has decreed corporations to be 'people', you must surely believe those corporations that pay no taxes must be excluded from receiving government contracts financed with the $$$ of those who do, right?

Most of those things are beyond the President's control. The military-industrial complex and the oil barons and special interest lobbyists actually make the policies for their puppet figurehead politicians.

Not saying he'll be worse than Obama, just not significantly different in any way.

Agreed. Unfortunately for us.

1. I don't think corporations should pay any taxes. GE paid no taxes, as they supported Obama. However, I do not think we should play political favorites.

2. The federal government has wasted and blown ANY REVENUE they have ever recived via taxation. Why in the world would we give the crack addict that is the federal government, more crack?

3. If we are going to have taxes, it should be a FLAT TAX with no deductions.

Exactly.

When corporations pay taxes, they pass on that cost of doing business to the consumer. Regarding the costs of taxes and regulatory compliance, the end user always pays.

Absolute truth, and I'm surprised so few people know this.

I got no problem with you supporting romney, if you think he is the right guy for you, thats fine, buts lets slow down on the he wants the best for all people. Republicans, like democrats look out for certain people. They do not serve the best interest of all people.
