Re: The Obama Years- A GOP love story
it seems that US companies are doing these "inter-mergers" with foreign companies to avoid paying taxes in the US since the corporate loop holes are being targeted for reform.
Big Pharma Skips to the U.K. to Avoid Taxes - The Daily Beast More companies want to ditch America to cut taxes - CBS News who knew ireland was a corporate tax dream land? world economics, corporate tax structures, inflation etc is all to complicated for a guy like me. im too distracted chasing that lone dollar dangling in front of me. |

Re: The Obama Years- A GOP love story
Anti-government citizen militia groups want to 'secure the border' in Texas - San Antonio Express-News
I've mentioned a couple times that I'm not to crazy about anyone aligned with Far-Left/Right views but in regards to the far-right, the views on illegal immigrants particularly irks me. All to often I hear complaints about how the reason this country is going downhill is people are turning away from Christianity and how people aren't willing to work hard. Then a large demographic made up of numerous hard working devout Christians tries to come here to provide a better life for their families and they're greeted with guns at the boarder by the same people that scold the government for trying to control their lives. The same people that are all to eager to en-state martial law and provide law enforcement with the authority to card anyone at the drop of a hat to prove their a citizen. I realize the boarder can't just be left wide open and I certainly understand the level of violence employed by drug cartels, particularly the ones connected with Tijuana. However there seems to be little distinction between the people I see in my posh part of town doing backbreaking labor in 90+ heat, possibly for below minimum wage and the guys that are willing to kill at the drop of a hat. Usually I could care less about the religious aspect but it makes me think that if a large group of people meeting key criteria from far right critics aren't able to gain acceptance then whats the chance they can be pleased at all.
