1) Exxon Mobil made $19 billion in profits in 2009. Exxon not only paid no federal income taxes, it actually received a $156 million rebate from the IRS, according to its SEC filings.
My liberal mind tells me they MUST be made to pay their fair share and fair share to me is 75% because they are corporations and evil and pollute the planet.
Owned by filthy, rich people while the middle class gets constantly plugged by corporation thugs! The proletariat must rise up and wave the banner of socialism!
We must stand in solidarity with the California Teachers Association in demanding these company profits be taxed and taxed hard!
As the size of the Portfolio grows, many of the investment managers’ accounts exceed $1 billion in assets. The typical size investment in alternative investment and real estate generally exceeds $400 million. The largest single investment is Exxon Mobile stock, worth nearly $2 billion alone.
The people that benefit are the filthy rich sitting on their fat behinds collecting fat checks while the middle class struggles and dies!
What tax rate should be levied against company profits?

If they are tax cheats won't the IRS go after them?
Missed the sarcasm, didn't you?
One of the largest shareholders of Exxon Mobil is the California Teachers Association pension fund. If we only taxed Exxon Mobil at a 50% rate we might be able to cut teachers pensions in half. Lots of liberal teachers would love sticking it to the evil rich oil companies.
Is this your way of defending tax cheats like Exxon Mobil

This is about Exxon Mobil, if you want to bring up G. Sachs or G.E. go ahead, otherwise this is hijacking.
