So we should get a president with the last name "Paul?" Works for me.

Who else came here wondering about the "buffet tax?" ...as a heavy person, I was all set to be outraged.

HYPER: Another user took the words out of my mouth, much of GE's (& Whirlpool) tax "avoidance" is due to tax credits for "green" energy. The light bulb ban signed by dim-bulb Bush offshored a lot of bulb production, in the form of CFLs. I don't think any income should be taxed, only consumption, that goes for ALL Americans. Washington wields the tax code like a sword, it picks winners & losers with it.

Warren Buffet need to put his money where his mouth is. He should donate his money to the Treasury instead of complaining about not paying enough taxes like some pussy.

@eirefrance I dont care if its Reason TV, College Humor, or Seananners, there is no excuse for pointless trolling.

GE pays no taxes. They operate a vast off-shore leasing and lending business abroad with profits that face little foreign taxes and no American taxes as long as the money remains overseas. GE needs to move out of America!
