So every dollar of income that I have that is potentially taxed away is a dollar I can't put in my company to create a job. My entire company is around job creation.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We cannot tax the same people we expect to create jobs. That is a recipe for keeping people out of work.
If we had zero corporate tax in this country, tens of millions of jobs would get created in this country for no other reason.
The problem with being an employee or self-employed is you pay the highest taxes.
Job creation requires a business friendly environment with a tax structure that is not punitive and a state government designed for efficient use of fewer tax dollars.
Make as much money as you can, but can you please pay your taxes, because this is a major problem.
Every dollar I can't commit to my company that's paid in taxes is paying a government that I believe is too big and doing way too much that I don't want done.
I do not want to impose additional taxes on the employers at a time when our economy is very fragile and we want to encourage them to hire.
I think we're pretty much where we need to be on corporate taxes.
What I want to do is create more taxpayers, not more taxes.
I've built companies, I've created jobs, I know the frustration of small businesses with higher taxes.
