"roughly 47 percent of Americans will pay no federal income taxes for 2009. In fact, a family of four with an income as high as $50,000 can escape a federal income-tax bill."

G.E.'s billionaire former and longtime CEO Jack Welch is directly responsible for permanently sending hundreds of thousands of American jobs to India; and indirectly responsible for additional millions of permanently outsourced American jobs as other companies emulated G.E.

I believe Jack should be indicted for treason, given a fair trial, and then executed for the misery he has wrought on our country. Then the corporation should be broken up.

Why do you think that for the first time in our history, 2000-2010, we have a decade with net job loss?

Randy, why do you think they so carefully decided to call it a "fair" tax?

Did you hear today of GE's tax structure? They paid nothing in federal taxes!

Ooh, name calling, capital letters, and exclamation points. Very strong arguments.

My father is fond of saying that "when you are engaged in a political discussion and you lob a rock into a pack of curs, it is easy to tell which one you struck, because that will be the one yelping while running away with its tail between its legs".

Twice in U.S. history we have dropped the marginal tax rate on the wealthy below 50%, and each time it has led shortly to depressions caused by bubble economies.

Way to stick it to Big Oil! What you didn't bother to google, however, is Exxon's profit margin, that is, how much out of every dollar of sales a company actually keeps in earnings.

You have to wonder what country they are living in and who is paying for their campaigns.

As for all the tea baggers and no taxes folks--well they are both stupid and greedy

Disappearing taxes on corporations would not result in lower prices. There's no prior evidence to support that.

It isn't all that complicated slick.

We've had the fair tax, and people like you, figured out well before your condescending post.

Check this out Randy, exxon-mobile reported record profits in 2009; record as in larger than anyone ever in the history of us or anyone else. $45,000,000,000.00.

Your definition of the fair tax is way off base. I am sure that you didn't misrepresent it on purpose, did you?
