Quote:The corporations are using loopholes and avoidance schemes. The rate isn't the problem, the republican congress's willingness to make corporations pay their share is the problem. We don't need to change the rate in order to change the receipts.

 

I'm still not getting where you're coming up with roughly 2 trillion dollars from.

 

You said tax corporations another trillion dollars... To go along with you - fine.

Abolish the entire military and save another 500 billion.  Ok, fine.

 

Where's the other 500 billion or so coming from, just to pay off the debt in the next 30 years?

 

We taxing corporations again for the rest?

 

You realize what 1/3 of our GDP going towards government spending/loans will look like?

 

PS: Better hope the U.S. doesn't have any kind of disaster in the next 30 years either.  U.S. - 30 years, disaster free.
