Where do you think those individuals get their income to pay income and payroll taxes? They get it from the profit made by corporations and other businesses. Or, if they are Government employees, they get their income from the Government who got it from corporations and other private businesses. I think that almost all wealth and income in the country comes from the profits made by private businesses.

What is a Corporation's - or anyone's - "fair share"?

Quote:
Does the Average American Have a 401(k)? | The Motley Fool "Data from the Census Bureau suggests that as little as 14% of all employers offer a 401(k), yet Census researchers recently estimated that 79% of Americans work for an employer that sponsors a 401(k)-style retirement plan. How is that possible? Large companies that employ high numbers of workers are the most likely to sponsor retirement plans. All that said, not everyone who's offered an employer-sponsored plan actually takes advantage of it. Of those 79% of Americans who get the choice to fund a 401(k), only 41% opt to participate. As such, just 32% of the total workforce is saving in a 401(k)."

There is another question needing to be addressed.
Why has it been this way ....forever....regardless what political power is in charge in Washington?????? Why do US Corporations hold billions of profits in over seas locations/institutions instead of repatriating the profits back to the USA? The tax structure....this has always been the case regardless what political power is in charge in Washington. There are some things that are/have been bi-partisan......that goes without discussion.....hint: has nothing to do with representing the benefit of the voters!!!

Let me preface this by saying that I did not read every post here. I do, however, have a comment of my own. The debate about the deficit/debt is interesting and there are some valid points. That being said, I also have a question:
If everyone (everyone being a general term and not precise) is so concerned that the taxes are not sufficient, then why all the outcry when taxes are raised? I'm not talking about business taxes, but individual taxes. Brings to mind the old adage of, "Let George do it; just leave me alone." Personally, I have enjoyed the tax cuts and the rise in my retirement funds. And, yes to the poster who pointed out that we, as retirees or participants in 401k's or mutual funds or whatever, ARE indeed those "greedy shareholders".

WG employees don’t Have the option of flex time. Which means you can come to work when you feel like it, take long lunch, and go home early, cause GS employees account for their own time keeping. where WG employees are controlled by WS or GS employees that are time keeper DONE to MINUTE. So please don say ALL government employees don’t earn their wage cause some do. |
