Ok, so think I read we need about 1,300,000,000,000 to balance the budget. If Exxon paid their fair share than would be about $10,000,000,000. So that means if just one single company paid their fair share it would tie off about 0.8% or almost 1% of the debt. So if we only got 100 companies to pay their fair share by closing loopholes then we'd be out of this mess. Thanks Sam!! You've proven that by closing loopholes we could both fix our budget problem AND give the tax bracket a 5% tax CUT. You're a genius! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:336593 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
