Their success depends on nearly every tax funded activity: public education of workers, roads, bridges, sewer, mail,, law and enforcement, EMS, disaster protection, state/local funding & representation, etc. There is no reason that they would be immune or subsidized by all others paying taxes.

Corporate welfare is real. If we can't force them to pay 5heir employees a livable wage, then tax them to compensate.

Trump stupidly cut them. They need to go back up and more! I'm tired of the nations finance and debt being paid off the backs of the middle class. I'm tired of the people of this country getting screwed by the rich!

You better come up with a better plan. You and everyone else have always paid the bills. Tax this and tax that, we pay for it all. The corporation’s pass that to the customers. Time to get the facts.

Because they are entities not people, and people, mainly blue collar, should not have to carry the United States and big corporations on their backs! We are the ones who work to make the money for these companies, many of which don't pay a living wage.

The companies will just raise the cost of everything and pass the cost down to the consumer. It's the way Democrats destroy America.

They will just pass the increased tax on to the consumer in higher prices. or reduced compensation to their employees.

These taxes would be passed directly on to consumers. This would fuel inflation.

Corporate taxes are not paid for by corporations. They are paid by consumers. This is the middle class tax hike Biden promised would not happen. It is simply disguised as something someone else pays. Just another lie.

You have this one correct. We the consumers support the corporations and will be paying the higher taxes. Anything that the “President“ wants to spend, will always be paid by the general public, no matter how you present it. It pays to know who your voting for.

Nothing is ever going back to what it once was. You will continue to fall. You only have your contentment now.

Missouri should enforce strict laws against animal abuse—because any society that calls itself evolved must protect the voiceless. Cruelty tolerated is cruelty normalized, and no state that values progress can afford that.

Yes the voiceless, to include humans as well. Babies need voices as well.

Currently, MO is the country's leader in puppy mills. Punish these horrible monsters who traffic in the misery of poor animals!

Dogs are the most loyal animals and love you unconditionally no matter how they are treated and it is just heartbreaking to see them mistreated or abused!

Because we need to be advocates for the animals that get taken advantage of. They can’t fight for them for themselves. Some humans are very cruel

Totally agree, look at how we treat our children in the womb as if they are a burden when actually its us who didn't take accountability for our own actions. Humans are selfish and cruel.

I think the more pertinent question would be should dogs and other domesticated animals kept as pets be considered property or have other more humane rights? This has nothing to do with breeding. The dogs were neglected and suffered immensely.

We need more room fulls of people in J.C. working out the details of sports betting, thereby sending exponentially more people into compulsive gambling, and eventually bankruptcy. To hell with protecting the innocent animals.
