It's ok people. I don't like Trump either. But our corporate tax levels were the highest in the world (3rd or 4th when including tax breaks). Lowering those is going to help. It's ok to admit it. You won't suddenly become a bigot.

Nice to someone who's left leaning or a centrist who's reasonable about this.

That's only telling half of the story though. It's not really important what's the corporate tax rate when after using every single loophole the effective tax rate gets to near single digits.

 

Another perspective is, if you're on the working class, you are paying higher taxes than the richest corporations the world has ever seen.

 

How's that for reasonability?
