    The US has the highest corporate tax rate of any industrialized nation. So, so much for loop holes … unless you are GE and best buds with the Administration. Then you don’t have to pay any taxes at all.

    Only if it’s big business…small ones are still taxed as they can’t afford the loopholes

    This whole gag is uninformed and quite backwards. If the ‘businessman’ is corporate, it’s on the house-our house.

    Business passes the cost of taxes on to the consumer, so in reality they do not pay taxes.

    @ Clark Kent – Unions are big business regardless of definition.

    Ha! Actually, a business lunch is tax deductible.

    The corporate tax RATE in the USA is nearly 40% (federal and state combined), but even when foreign, state and local taxes were taken into account, the companies total effective taxes were only 16.9% of their worldwide income, thanks to deductions, foreign shelters, credits and exemptions. This is much lower than most other countries in the developed world.
