Oh My God! Another Cranky Bastard That Gets It. THANK YOU!



From The New York Crank
One of the reasons you and I and other ordinary American citizens are taxed so much and still live in a country with a huge Federal deficit is because multi-billion dollar American corporations are taxed so little.

They move money around — around Europe and the Caribbean — to make their tax liabilities disappear.

According to Bloomberg news, Google and other U.S. corporations are ripping off the taxpayer to the tune of $60 billion. Now Facebook is about to follow. And there are still others.

The upshot? We work for them, we buy their products. Which means: we make them rich. And they play shell games so they won't have to pony up their share?

From one irritated bastard to another: I salute you, sir.
