Word: The reality of corporate taxation

Bernie Sanders - In 1952, corporate America paid 32% of all federal taxes. Today, despite record breaking profits, they pay less than 10% and one out of four large profitable corporations pay nothing in federal income taxes.

Politician: You corporations should pay 32% of the taxes in this country!!!

Corporations: OK, but then we won't contribute anything to you're re-election campaign! We are AMERICANS, Patriotic AMERICANS dammit, and we shouldn't have to pay more! Or I'll take my playthings and become a Patriotic Dubai resident, like Halliburton... dammit!

Politician: Oh... OK. I'll soak the poor, they can't complain.
