No one in power right now has the balls to change the tax system. It is broken and yet they go right along and say we need more money.
How many of us on the sight have cut back to match our budget?
The Senate has not passed a budget in what 2 plus years? Come on now don't blame the Companies ...
I read something the other day, (I did not have a chance to verify) that if you taxed everyone over 250K 100% and all corps 100% on all there profits, you would not even pay off a 1/2 year of our debt obligations...
I still like Ronnies quote..."taxing did not get us into trouble...spending did"

Problem is when the government is bought off by corporations. You combine that with media outlets plugging bs propaganda 24 x 7 to push xyz message, so we elect corporate puppet 1, 2, or 3. The "government" / corporate puppets are deciding xyz corporation is too big to fail and that the public must bail them out with tax dollars. Then you have those same puppets deciding on a budget . . . i.e. which company is gonna get a slice of government spending. We are not longer talking about capitalism. Government is not the top of the food chain and NOT working for the people.
