Me thinks Obama intent to increase corporate and capital gain taxes will
harm the auto industry and American auto workers, as well as all other
American manufactures. Everybody knows corporations do not pay taxes, they
pass them through to the consumer and they do it at a percentage of profit.
One can look forward to even MORE jobs going off shore as manufactures try
to compete with imports that are not subject to US taxes or extraordinary
regulations. I would not be surprised to see American corporations, that
operate internationally, moving their headquarters offshore as well. GM and
Ford would be much better off operating as Dubai corporations
The Japanese already have a huge advantage in the US in that they do not pay
any US federal corporate income taxes on the profit earned in the US.
Raising taxes even higher, to buy votes for all of the "free" stuff Obama is
promising, will only make it harder to compete with imports of all types.
Americans are not like the Japanese, who support their own industries,
Americans will buy from anywhere if they think they can save a few dollars.
Just look how much they buy now of the products made in China without
regards to how it effects their own jobs.
It seems to me the polls, showing Obama will win, is one of the primary
things that are fueling the fall in the stock market today. Especially when
one considers the fact that new, and formerly owned, home sales were up two
percent and the umimployment rate went down last month and it appears to be
getting even better so far this month, the market should not be going down
but it is.

The Republicans got us to this point, and it is a Republican president
with a large enough number of Republicans in Congress right now to stymie
any real attempt at a Democratic agenda, so it is pretty clear to most
people that you are off your rocker.
No matter how bad the Democrats are, once they get their filibuster-proof
majority and their President in office, it couldn't possibly be any worse
than
what we have now.

You obviously have never owned a business! How can you believe that he wants
to "help" corporations when he is TELLING you he will raise taxes on
corporations and capital gains, that will make it even more difficult to
manufacture anything in the US?
How often has he said he will not give tax brakes to corporation the send
jobs overseas? The fact is there is NO IRS regulation that results in, or
even offers, a tax deduction to ANY US corporation "for sending jobs over
seas."

There is no getting around paying taxes, We all will pay, its just a matter
of how much. I would rather have big business pay more taxes than me, yet I
am still for big business so your comment really makes no sense about can't
have it both ways. If a company is on solid footing then paying taxes will
not kill the company. If you run your business right then taxes will not
make or break your business. And yes I have owned a business. >> Stay informed about: Any of the Prez candidates Pro US auto Industry? |

Like I said, you obviously have never owned a business! I have, and like
every other business when ones costs of doing business go up, be it taxes,
government regulations, material or labor cost, those costs are passed on to
the consumer, at the percentage of profit at which one operates.
Historically the Democrats have tax business so you do not know that it is
you the consumer that actually pays those taxes. The result is it becomes
more difficult to do business in this county when one has so many foreign
cooperators that do not have anywhere near the costs imposed on US
businesses thus sending more jobs offshore.
You can bet YOU do not pay anywhere near the current 43% of what your earn
to the federal government, as does a business on its profits, over and above
all other state and local taxes paid by business.

It doesn't make a difference what the presidential candidates are for.
If the US auto industry is to survive, they need the US people to
support them, not the US Government.
