$15,000,000,000 is a long way from $300,000.
Question: When the cost of producing a product increases, who pays the difference?
If the taxes are increased on big and small businesses, who in the end will pay for that increase?
Look, if you feel that it's ok that these greedy corporations are making obscene profits and still crying to their buddies in Washington that they need more tax breaks, then you need your head examined. We need a total restructuring of our monetary system to put the money at the bottom and let it work it's way up which will benefit everyone up the ladder. This trickle down economics garbage of old Ronnie Reagan and the deregulation that started with him is what's gotten us into this mess. We would be better to stop growth for awhile and get the poor and middle class on solid ground, instead of bailing out these thieves that let greed become a way of life.

I didn't see the answer to my questions here. I don't agree with all of McCain's tax plan either. But hitting the businesses with higher taxes will only increase the cost of the products and they still have their profits. Plan and simple.
