Gandhi and Corporate Taxation

March 28, 2011March 22, 2017

GANDHI WAS A FOOL, A FAILURE, AN EGOTIST (AND GAY)

. . . and he delayed India’s independence from Great Britain. That’s not how I remember the movie, but read the Wall Street Journal take here.

CORPORATE TAX RATES ARE TOO HIGH

. . . with too many incentives for moving off-shore. Watch Lesley Stahl’s lead piece on last night’s “60 Minutes.”

The Bowles-Simpson Budget Deficit Commission had it right: lower the corporate tax rate while also closing loopholes, so more corporations actually pay it.

Quote of the Day

"Oil's been discovered in hell! shouts a stockbroker at the Pearly Gates. All bolt; he follows. I know why THEY'RE running, St. Peter says, but why you? Who knows, says the broker. Maybe there's something to it!"
