Hence, anything that would increase the ability of people to pay that personal income tax would increase government revenue, while at the same time increasing the general prosperity (as that tax would only become payable as people prosper).
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

Sure it does. Expand or die is pretty much what it says. Your objections are noted, and ignored.

I'd be fine with corporations not paying taxes if they didn't have so many rights.

Noted and ignored rather than addressed?
Punishing past success seems a strange idea though

Wouldn't all the current manufacturing businesses just spin-off mini-factories?

It's Obama's fault because he can't grasp how jobs are created.

Let's not be naive. The President has the power to introduce and direct legislation.

More government hoop-jumping is not a long-term solution to anything.

That wouldn't actually raise that much money, even if they currently paid no taxes.
