Let's just close down every corporate entity in the US for ONE MONTH. Maybe then some people will shrivel. Can you imagine people not being able to get their meds ANYWHERE?!?!?! Oh man. Gas, food, electricity, all of it would get jacked up hard. Let's do it man, I'm tired of lefties complaining about rich people.

Edit: If you don't have glasses, I'm trying to say that "corporate" is here to stay. Move on. lol

No, I don't think they're poor, but I'm tired of p's.o.s like yourself wanting to rape them for everything they have when you give them business in everyday life. You tell me you don't give ANY corporation your business and that would make you a liar. Anyway, I just said let's close 'em all down for a month and see what happens. They're so evil, let's do without 'em for awhile. Wouldn't bother me a bit. I'm no city dweller, I'll be fine, how about you?

I don't hate Barack. I just find his Nobel Peace Prize speaks for him. He is awarded allocades for stuff he didn't do.
ACA? Written by Pelosi and Reid and they did the legislative dirty work to get it passed but Obama gets the credit.
Osama? Any other president would have made the same call.
Current economic malaise? Barack's record stimulus keeps unemployment averaging 8%, but he is somehow re-elected.


Sounds more like Mitt-Flop/RMoney to me... Getting accolades for stuff he didn't do... But hey, since the 47% told him to take his candidacy and shove it, I don't think we have to worry. He can concentrate on trying to remember which car is on which floor of the elevator...

Here's who is struggling...

CEO Who Championed Tax Hikes On “The Rich” Gives Himself Special Dividend To Avoid Higher Tax Rate
Costco’s Dividend Tax Epiphany – Wall Street Journal

When President Obama needed a business executive to come to his campaign defense, Jim Sinegal was there. The Costco co-founder, director and former CEO even made a prime-time speech at the Democratic Party convention in Charlotte. So what a surprise this week to see that Mr. Sinegal and the rest of the Costco board voted to give themselves a special dividend to avoid Mr. Obama’s looming tax increase. Is this what the President means by “tax fairness”?

lol Being liberal doesnt mean you have to live like Gandhi... Remember when conservatives were outraged when they found out Al Gore lives in a house with electricity, and that he drove a car!?


:rofl

And the collectivists still somehow fail to understand the obvious. Business, especially finance, is global and employment is local. Business is up across the globe, except for right here at home thanks to a campaigner in chief who adheres to an economic ideology that is fundamentally flawed.

The latest example? Just yesterday the House forwarded a proposal to raise $800 billion in additional revenue that was DOA at the Oval Office. Why? Because, while it contained an increase in revenue that was similar to what the president claims his tax rate increase would generate, it didn't contain the magic words "tax rate increase" on the portion of the population the president wishes to punish.

You have to always love an article that starts with "Profits reach record high (in absolute dollars)" This is common in so many articles written by progressive amateur economic journalists, but I wonder if they really understand numbers or is it a calculated strategy to play down to the economic illiteracy of the masses? LOL Keep up the good journalism Huff Po!
