Gasoline prices (and Big Oil profits) are way up. We need a windfall tax to take some of those gains and send them back to the American people.

So right. All these “patriots” saying the govt taxes big corps too much and that given as the reason why they take business overseas is not quite the patriotic move…. At all. ESP to just put profits back in their pockets.

should not washington dc led first then. a extra tax on all members of the 3 branches of government on salary and money made on stocks and other sources. let them go first. to make sure it is safe and right to do so.

Corporate taxes are passed on to the customer. So you're calling for higher prices when you should be calling out Congress to control their own reckless spending behavior

It should basically be replaced, like the steam engine. There should be a warp speed effort to justly transition from fossil fuel extraction to green energy. The fossil fuel industry could and should lead the effort, whereas now they simply thwart it.
