You are so confused. Corporate subsidies are a LIBERAL idea not conservative. Any politician that advocates them forfeits the right to call himself conservative.

Eliminating corporate taxes is not a subsidy. Not stealing your wallet is not the same as giving you $100.

( opps I forgot. You’re an MD. Make that $10)

You gave fact and the right wing nut cases on this thread will answer with some form of name calling. Facts are ignored far the sake of ideology. Sort of like the commies during the cold war.

If a company invests in something that is beneficial to the environment, like technology that saves energy or uses clean(er) energy, or reduces CO2 or PCB's, Should they get a tax credit ? If they take it, is that cheating ?

If a company earns part of it's income in a foreign country and pays the tax their, should they pay tax again on the same income, in the US ? If they take the foreign tax credit, is that cheating ?

If a company makes $1m one year, pays 350k in taxes, then looses $1m the next year, should they get the 350k back ? Or should they spread that loss out over several years when they make money ? If they spread the loss over several years, Is that cheating ?

Do you oppose all corporate "subsidies" ?
