That means, if you are a US taxpayer, your taxes are paying for this entire process. Murdoch's News Corp "generat[ed] $10.4 billion in profits over the past 4 years, and which would have been expected to pay the IRS $3.6 billion at the statutory corporate tax rate, instead received $4.6 billion back from Uncle Sam. Bottom line: Murdoch's corporation had a cash paid tax rate of -46% between 2007 and 2010." http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article28552.htm You can read a full account of how it's done at the link. Christ, thats more than NPR lets shut these cocksuckers down, if the public wants this line of shit, they will pay for it, stand on their own, let the market decide!!!!!

quote: ORIGINAL: willbeurdaddy quote: ORIGINAL: erieangel except for the fact that the Dems in Congress could write all the job-creating bills they pleased, they'd never get a vote, Boehner wouldn't allow that to happen. The fact is that the only "job creating bills" are those that reduce taxes and regulations. Read my lips: it is impossible for the government to create net jobs. Even Obama laughs at the idea of "shovel ready jobs". If the Dems get serious about "creating jobs" by getting the fuck out of the way, they will have plenty of GOP votes. Not exactly. The federal government can easily create jobs, both in the public sector (direct hiring) or in the private sector (releasing bids). I believe that your point is that the way it finances these kind is by removing private sector money which otherwise would have created private sector jobs instead. However, the federal government has the option of creating jobs through deficit spending, and making jobs NOW that have to be paid for LATER.

Great post Hippie! I put up with a lot of crap at work because as stressful as it is it beats losing my job and having to look for another job. I'm well aware that noone is indispensable so I keep my mouth shut. Instead I'm keeping my stress levels down as much as possible.
