Biden wants to raise the corporate tax rate from 21 to 28% but Manchin won’t go beyond 25%. Giving a low corporate tax rate to multi-billion dollar industries that pay their workers survival wages & their CEOs tens of millions of dollars a year is not competitive, it’s immoral

Maybe we should begin negotiations at a trillion percent.

The US corporate tax rate used to be 35%, not too long ago either. That would be a much more suitable level and might actually help get something useful done. Although the biggest corps would have to actually PAY the tax...

It is immoral to indeed!
Replying to @marwilliamson @pixienic
How about the corps that pay nothing? Maybe ask them to contribute.

It was 35% pre-trump, why doesn't he revert it back, 28% from the guy wrote the crime bill and stopped bankruptcy protection from millions of people just before a recession

Oh well what to do? Manchin is the ultimate power in this country and has absolute authority in all matters. Lets pick the greenest spot to die on... Hey @SenateDems retweet how not being owned by Joe Manchin would help YOUR family #UmmWinning

28% is still too low.

Throw in a real, livable minimum wage, $20/hour, limit executive pay, close loopholes and maybe the rate could be slightly lower.

Screw him.
