		<description>JM, I wouldn&#039;t spit at it either, except that why should the government take money away from others to give me and others $42?  Is it really going to make our economy stronger?</description>

		<description>I wouldn&#039;t spit at an extra $42 per month take home. But then, I already live well below my means, so that means for me it would be another $42 per month into savings or investments.</description>

		<description>After reading all that, I just want to go to the Fair Tax system.  I have no problem with paying for the government services I use (firemen, police, health care at some point), but one flat rate that everyone has to pay when they purchase something just makes a hell of a lot more sense than this mess.</description>

		<description>Excellent job on fact checking. Calm and reasoned. Apparently fair. 

I have no &quot;dog&quot; in this fight. I&#039;m a little L libertarian. Don&#039;t care much for either candidate.

I would like to comment on &quot;Corporate Income Tax&quot;. 

It&#039;s a sham designed to deceive the folks as to what is the overall level of taxation that Americans pay.

CORPORATIONS DON&#039;T PAY TAXES OR FEES. YOU DO!

As a &quot;frugal&quot; site, I read often, I think you&#039;d hammer this home.

Corporations are very much like a zero sum game. If they have a cost, they pass it along to the person who buys their product or services. If it&#039;s a widget with a pound of steel in it, your paying for that pound. Price of steel goes up, the corporation marks up the price of their product. Simple enough. If they didn&#039;t they&#039;d go broke.

When the gooferment imposes taxes on Corporations, that&#039;s just another cost that the business pass along to you. EXCEPT now you can&#039;t see it. You don&#039;t know what portion of the cost of a loaf of bread is taxes and what portion is bread.

It gets worse, regulations and laws add costs. They come to you hidden in the cost of the products.

It gets even worse, when the gooferment taxes a product that corporations use to make or deliver other products (e.g., gasoline), that tax is a tax on taxes. And is passed along and even buried further. It has an exponential effect!

I&#039;ve seen estimates that the real tax percentage in products is HUGE! 50 to 75%!! I don&#039;t think anyone can tell. AND that&#039;s excatly the politicians purpose.

Bottom line: Corporate taxes imho should be ZERO! 

Let&#039;s put the cost of gooferment squarely out in the open! These bozos are no fools. There&#039;s a reason that Tax Day is a half a year away from election day. That reason is that they couldn&#039;t get it any further away.

So, when either candidate talks about corporate taxes, regulation, and fees, I think they are, possibly unknowingly (But I don&#039;t beleive that) DEFRAUDING us from know the true cost of how badly we are being ROBBED!

sigh, imho,
wake up sheeple,
