    Obama panders to corporate America with tax cut...

    LINK...
    The Treasury Department said the plan would lower the top income-tax rate for corporations to 28% from 35%, cut the effective tax rate even further for manufacturers, and eliminate or restrict many popular deductions while making others permanent.
    This should play well with his unwashed 99% crowd......Ben

    They also said corp america would have to pay a tax on overseas income even if it means that the company is selling products made and sold there as a means of producing goods for that local market. its too broad of a pen stroke to make it pallatable.

    Be very weary of Obozo's tricks as he loves taxes to much to be honest about it.

    I don't think that is even legal. How can they tax a product that is both made and sold overseas.....that one would be overturned..

    If they keep thier manufacturing/jobs right in the the US why even tax them at all. We need BOLD. Look how much they already have to pay for wages and healthcare compared to other countries.

    Yeah, but since it is made and sold overseas, the income is derived overseas....I fail to see how they should have any power to tax it...

    Next thing you know they will want to tax other countries for putting our workers out of work....that is on top of all of the import taxes already paid.
