How do you feel about tax breaks for business? Would you vote for a candidate that was for it or against it?

If tax breaks for business will keep the businesses at home, why not give it to them. If we do that, then we need to tax the #$%^ out of imports so that people will actually buy American products. We need to have heavy penalties for American companies that send jobs overseas.

If you tax them, the tax is passed through to the purchasing public anyway. It might be better to vote for the guy that will help to bring jobs to the area.

This is a problem with high tax areas. Businesses can up and move giving the tax and spend politician nothing but empty words when he says business doesn't contribute it's fair share.

All candidates seem, to me, a bit weak. Overall, I believe Romney and Santorum are the cream that's risen to the top - it's honestly going to be between those two - but let's just say that the cow wasn't very healthy and gave us some crappy milk. For me, Romney has more of the same values I do, both politically and religiously, even though he's still a little too "big government" for me (considering his support for the bank bailouts). But there doesn't seem to be any legitimate reason for him to be ineligible for president. And the same goes for Santorum. While Santorum is a close second for me, he just doesn't seem very presidential. His demeanor and style simply doesn't hit the right tone with me. And while both candidates contain hypocrisy and - in my opinion - too much of a desire to launch venom out of their mouths, I'd go with Romney. But DON'T go Newt. Think about how long that man's been in Congress. ANYBODY that's been in there THAT long receives some kind of a taint. Let me put it this way: The man doesn't smell right.

Tax breaks for small businesses definitely... but big business? No way! They already make enough profit without the government adding to it. Also, the way that large corporations treat their customers/employees generally sickens me... but that's a different rant.

Not certain where I fall on this. Tax breaks for companies might be a good thing but as long as it actually worked for the good welfare of the place it's located in.

That is a very smart thought on your part. I try to explain the same idea to others, but they are caught up in the "stick it to the man" mantra.

If you raise taxes on McDonalds, or raise minimum wage, the price of the hamburger goes up to cover it. In fact, they usually raise it more. So the minimum wage goes up, but the worker is worse off because his buying power is reduced. The rest of us making more than minimum wage actually end up making less do to our reduced buying power.

No tax for U.S companies or tarrifs for U.S comapnies so buisneess can expand and reinvest in economy. It will bring jobs to america becuase they dont have to pay no taxes

It's fine to give businesses a tax break as long as they don't send those jobs overseas, which the Republicans have been doing.

Obama for America!

They should but tax breaks should go to small buissnesses as well not just big buissness

i would vote for one that would give tax breaks to small business owners and farmers. unfortunately mcpain wants to give a 2 billion dollar tax break to exxon mobile.
