Yes Rep Allen West wants to CUT CORPORATE TAXES, I guess GE had too much to bear this year :eyes: But that's not all, he want's to hold the Debt Ceiling hostage until he gets what he wants.
Now it's not like he's a hypocrite or anything, he says himself that "I don’t believe in leadership by fear and intimidation." :crazy:
Fucking crooks everywhere.

Republicans have, for months, been laying out various demands that they want in exchange for voting to raise the nation’s debt ceiling, even though failure to do so would have widespread and disastrous consequences. Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner estimates that the country will reach its legal borrowing limit around May 16.
Calling it a “leverage moment,” some of the demands Republicans have cited are a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution and various versions of spending caps or cuts. Today on ABC’s This Week, Rep. Allen West (R-FL) added one more demand to the list — cutting the corporate tax rate in half:

WEST: Well, one of the things, having served 22 years in the United States military, I don’t believe in leadership by fear and intimidation. I think that leaders have to come up with viable solutions. I agree with one of the things
Joe Walsh just brought up, we need to have a balanced budget amendment…But I think also, now is a great time, when we can cut our corporate business tax rate in half. Bring it from 35 percent to 20 to 22 percent because there’s a lot of capital just sitting out there that we could use to invest in long-term sustainable job growth…This is not about a debt ceiling being raised, this really comes down to a debt suggestion.
