Again, now we’re talking about corporate rates. But that’s not how the thread began. All groups lobby. By the way, I’m not the person to talk to if you want someone to defend the current health care system—I get quite a bit of flack for my position on that issue. In fact, I’ve got to get ready to visit my acupuncturist today. So, this will be my last comment for a while.

But I agree wholeheartedly with you on those issues. My impression, from the top of the thread, was how much we should tax the CEO of Phizer. As if taxing him more is going to help many people. It won’t help many people. It will help the government get out of its debt problem. Helping many people, historically, comes from changes in attitudes, changes in technology, and changes in infrastructure. That’s different than the original post at the top of the page.
