The CEOs head a diverse array of corporations, including Aetna Inc., Microsoft Corp., JPMorgan Chase & Co., Time Warner Cable Inc., Merck & Co. Inc., General Electric Co., Dow Chemical Co., Verizon Communications Inc., Bank of America Corp., AT&T Inc. and Allstate Corp.
The group endorses the proposals of a special bipartisan commission that called for about $3 in spending cuts for every $1 in tax increases to save around $4 trillion.

Show me a spending cut...anywhere in the federal budget. OK, not the budget, we don't have one. Show me where total year to year spending has declined (not counting the drop after the massive spike associated with spedulus). Not cuts in increases in spending, actual reductions. Then we can talk about raising taxes.
We don't have a revenue problem, we have a spending problem.
I'll wager they weren't calling for higher "corporate" taxes. it's like Warren Buffet, taking only $100K salary calling for higher taxes on "the rich".

it does look like some of the corporations did accept fedgov money and should have no say in the matter. if bill gates is in favor of more taxes, then he should donate his company and all his personal wealth to the feds. after all, who really needs 50 billion dollars

Actually, all they said was that congress needs to increase taxes and cut spending. They didn't specify where.
See, this is what real CEO's can do, math.
Mitt, seems to have forgotten that skill when he became a politician, and the President doesn't seem to know it either.

Bill Gates doesn't own Microsoft anymore and his money is tucked away in the Gates Foundation.
These rich folks won't be paying any more taxes than they do already.

You want to bring up republicans, when the Romney asked Obama several times why Obama ignored the recommendations, and Obama lied about it?

As I've said, multiple times now, ignorance is not mutually exclusive to one party.
Romney's "plan" doesn't add up, and I don't know what the Presidents plan is, other then the same tired "clean energy" "raise taxes on 250,000 or more" tired lines I've heard for 5 years.
