>> Oil companies pay less in U.S. taxes in part because they receive generous tax subsidies. These subsidies will cost the U.S. government about $3 billion next year in lost revenue and nearly $20 billion over the next five years. Barack Obama subsidized physicians to the tune of $30 Billion in the stimulus to buy computers and software for providers. Did you bitch about THAT subsidy? BTW, oil companies don't get subsidies like that 30 Billion. They get tax deductions, which are in fact, the same as the tax deductions you get in YOUR personal service corporation and the same that I get my S-Corporations. And some idiots call those "subsidies" and you're too uninformed to know the difference.
