WJ this morning: Limiting off-shore havens

Some great calls. Rushicans never fail to expose their willingness to break laws so they can hide profits.

1. The rich hide so much money,

and avoid so many taxes that it's shameful. Their friends in Congress just let it slide. Corporations get away with a lot too. I have no sympathy when they whine about rates.

2. And, Of Course, Some Tool Calls In. . .

. . .and complains that taking away tax havens will eliminate the incentive to make money. He implied in every way that Obama is a socialist, but of course, they never explain how Obama can be a multimillioaire socialist. (Since there are no such things.)

And that idiot even tried to justify having write off admin costs on U.S. taxes when the product is made overseas. Greta ran a specific part of the proposal by him, and he hemmed and hawed for a bit. Then he just fell back on the "this administration just seems to want to make something wrong out of making a profit."

Probably a paid repub operative.

3. It's sickening

One is on now - over taxation and regulations.
They argue the same way they argue about torture. If it's good for their personal agenda, who the hell cares if it's illegal.

4. Oh, and there's the George Soros lament!

Greta asked where he gets his information and he replies (with a straight face, I'm guessing) FOX FAKE NEWS! It's all over the news that Soros owns the Democratic Party and especially President Obama. :puke:
