Dissusion Question

We sometimes hear politicians or others talking about "corporate welfare" when referring to tax policies of our government that are favorable to businesses. They say there are too many loopholes available to businesses.

Others say that stimulating businesses with favorable tax policies stimulates the economy overall, thus creating jobs for everyone, etc.

Indicate what you think about this. What kind of balance should we be seeking? Or, do you agree with some who say that corporate profits should not be taxed at all?

Every one is required to make a posting. You may also post back and forth responding to what anyone says, but you are not required to do this. Please keep in mind that some will do this exercise later in the Course after the regular schedule of Class Session 4. Thus, depending on your own personal interest for this topic, you may come back to this Forum later to read more comments that will have been posted at that time.
