DownsizingGovernment.org
There's a guy named Chris Edwards, the tax director of the CATO institute on Washington Journal. He's laying out graphically, what the repukes are going to do. It's no surprise but it is horrifying.

Here's his plan:

1. Yes, because a corporation/wealthy-controlled America is TRULY the better plan.
Do these people STILL think Reagan and Thatcher were awesome for their respective countries?

Holy shit, I had to take a shower after reading that. WHERE are these people hatched from?

2. How about DownSizing Corporations?
Corporations may have some utility when they allow people to work together for the common good. But when they start enriching a few at the expense of the people who built the wealth with their hands, then the corruption begins.

If corporations were required to share stock among the employees whenever stock was made available to the public or to the executives, and if there was a huge tax on stock trades then there would be a much better distribution of wealth.
