At the end of the day, the government is to blame.
Whether its the tax loop holes or run away spending.
THEY spend and borrow like crazy, then stick us with the bill.
Nope wrong. We are to blame. Look in the window of any starbucks tomorrow and it will be full of people buying expensive coffee served by a person on mimimum wage.

I agree
That's my point.
The government are criminal.
I was watching Max Keiser this morning and a guy was telling him that the government had blocked all criminal procedures against the City of London banksters.
We need a revolution.

You are exactly right. Hasn't anyone taken an Economics class? One of the first things taught is that all costs are borne by the consumer.

How many people were employed ?
Sometimes it's better to have people have jobs then to worry about a corporation paying enough tax.
If you taxed them at what you might consider a fair rate, perhaps they wouldn't have opened so many stores and employed so many people.
