You arent following your own conversation very well. You responded that Reagan removed loopholes, in response to GE paying $0 corporate taxes. If Reagan removed loopholes, then AGAIN, why was GE able to pay NOTHING? Come on, I know you can catch up to the rst of us..
I know exactly what I am saying, but if you want to insert Obama into every post you make, then you go right ahead, but don't expect everyone to follow you every time you change the subject. I am not interested in your games.
Are you arguing Reagan did not remove any loop holes? Sure sounds like you believe so. Reagan removed a lot of loopholes including many used by his ex-employer GE, but quite obviously GE is utilizing new loopholes today. 30 years has passed, and new laws have been written and tax lawers have discovered new loopholes in them, and in the old ones, and they are being exploited. It is time to pull the weeds again.

Actually it was YOU that changed the subject. The thread is to discuss corporations not paying taxes, not reagan. I asked you a question to maybe have you not look like a hypocrite by saying Presidents do "X" on one posting, but the next say they dont. Rather than answer the question you go off and attack, why?

Never at all said Reagan didnt remove loopholes, but now by your own admission, talking about his policies are ridiculous since 30 years have passed. Makes me wonder why you have distracted from the thread to go back 30 years rather than discuss current policies...
Maybe you can help the rest of us understand what the hell you are talking about..
Reagan ok to discuss, Obama not. How exactly did you come to this conclusion?
I would start with the big ones and review how corporations use offshore tax havens to avoid paying tax in US. Look at Google for example. They pay 2.3% tax rate in US

Actually google paid 2.4% in OVERSEAS taxes. The USA tax rate is 28% which is why they dont keep it here.
Still waiting for you to tell me why we can discuss Reagans policies but not Obamas..

The tone here is getting quite unpleasant, so this will be my final reply to you. I know from past experiance that with you it only gets worse from here on. If you insist on talking about Obama on every post you make, then you go right ahead, but I have no interest in it. Why is this so difficult to understand? I happen to agree with Reagan's approach, and that is why I brougt it up. I am sorry it offended you. Why you think you are in position to demend everyone talk about Obama is beyond me. You can talk about him, but it would be nice if you let others bring up other points.

My answer to the question of the thread is that the right wingers dont want the corporate 'people' paying taxes, just the middle class and the poor- the upper classes should not be taxed as they are the (hymnal music) 'job creators'
That's complete BS Nobody wants them exempt from taxes, just not singled out for excessive taxes. That fact that your vision is so weak as to not see that is scarry. Stay off of the roads.
