Whatever happened to the principle that whoever makes the through legal trade gets to own it? Why does the US have such gigantic monetary needs? How on earth does the US get into 18 trillion of debt? Where's all thr fruits of that money???? Surely the solution is not for the government to keep being given more of the people's money?!! Government is a bottomless pit waste of money with very weak oversight - the more money you give the government - the more it wastes. If people paid for the things they need directly, rather than have the cost/administration overhead of government, society as a whole would be richer. Corporations don't use very many government services - so why should they be heavily taxed? The more ridiculous the taxes in the US become, the more businesses will simply incorporate overseas. The US taxes need to become radically lower and radically simpler - then the US stands a chance to actually collect taxes. See Ireland 12.5 corporate tax rate.
