"The way to make American businesses competitive is not to let some citizens and businesses dodge their responsibility, while ordinary Americans pick up the slack. Unfortunately, that's exactly what we're doing"
It's very true. Most of the millionaires in these multi-million dollar corporations don't give two pfffts in a fountain about the plight of folks making under $30,000.00 a year. Now, someone will bring up charity donations from Republicans but if you're getting all those donations back in your tax returns where's the charity in that?
"If financial institutions won't cooperate with us, we will assume that they are sheltering money in tax havens and act accordingly."
Heck, there are a lot of little buerocrats in many of our small towns sheltering money and you want to think it never enters the minds of even richer folks to do likewise?
Then the big comparison, this is just like what Bush did? Yeah right, Bush fought a war for oil to fatten his and his best friends pockets while not giving a crap what poorer Americans had to pay each week to drive to work. And, if Mccain was president now gas prices would be well over $5.00 a gallon.
