The tax code is too complicated with too many loop holes. Everyone should pay their fair share, from +1B companies to the welfare queens sitting at home watching trial attorney TV commericals all day. Taxes need to be low to encourage business growth, with corresponding small gov spending. FJB

Adam

Agreed. The wealthier the business/person is, they need to pay more than the guy struggling from paycheck to paycheck

Max DeYoung

All taxes are passed on down to the customers, hurting the poorest people the most, and not affecting the businesses at all.

Increasing taxes always has negative results. It never hits its intended target. It will only impact people who are already struggling. Corporations do NOT pay taxes. Their customers do. It is ALWAYS passed on to the consumer.

Lida Vitt

They will put more people out of work with businesses looking for a way to save money. And it will affect income on the people. The Government is creating more inflation rather than decreasing inflation for their inflationary spending.

Only Socialists will bite the hand that feeds them.

Max DeYoung

This bill is Socialism 101. It will hurt everyone in America.

Max DeYoung

Success helps everyone, taxing success hurts everyone. Socialism 101.

Debra Riffle

these decisions should be made at a state level, not a federal level.

The “wealthy” do not pay taxes. A good business puts it expenses back onto the customers. We, the proles, pay taxes for the wealthy. Also, the “wealthy” don’t take salaries. The company the own provides for them, and they get tax breaks. If you make less than $100,000,000.00, you done.

As Mizzou learned the hard way, campus protests can be very bad for the institution of higher learning. Police and even the National Guard should be used to restore order and make it safe for minorities (e.g., Jewish students) to attend class. The left has taken over higher ed, you see results. FJB

Max DeYoung

Harry, your reply to me is true, and accurate, but a peaceful protest is legal.

Bill Douglas

Start holding the alumni accountable who use the state taxpayer dollars in the form of their state government salaries to donate and buy tickets to athletic programs of these universities. Revoke their degrees, and find someway of filing criminal charges against them even if you have to make it up.

Bill Douglas

They need to revoke the degrees of each and every UM Columbia grad who has an engineering degree starting with the walking dictionary we have in my hometown who times stoplights. That computer geek can do nothing but quote a bunch of state regulations and policy that nobody understands.

No, not if they are peaceful, otherwise the answer is yes.

When was the last time you saw a peaceful leftist protest? "We need some muscle over here" ring any bells?
