Wall Street's Response to Obama's Economic Policy

I disagree because I happen to think the article I posted is not ethical behavior. Also, why should corporations and the rich have the luxury of being able to take advantage of all the benefits America has to offer yet not have to put anything back?

As far as the oil companies, I like Pelosi's idea because we, including myself, only worry about oil prices when they're high yet forget about the future when they're low. High oil prices obviously have a direct impact on our economy. Now we have both congress and the president fairly close to being on the same page and quite frankly, I'm all for getting us away from our dependence.

Wall Street's Response to Obama's Economic Policy

I just want to know when we're going to go after all the offshore accounts. Like KBR that avoids paying taxes and avoids paying SS on its emplyees yet is a HUGE recipient of our tax dollars. Taxes that the rest of us then have to make up. America's infrastructure and our government isn't free. Enough is enough and to hell with the repubs, they obviously just don't get it. After this last election, WE are obviously still in charge!
