I don't mind corporations making legal profits . . . but I do mind when they come to Congress, with sachels of lobbying cash, crying their beady eyes out about what a tough time they're having and that they're going to need more than a few credits, subsidies, incentives and other forms of "corporate welfare." Meanwhile, they're spending more on buying back their own stock than they are on investment in infrastructure or exploration.

I agree. I think every individual and every business should be taxed by the same criteria, no deductions, no incentives, nada. That takes all the possibility of bribery (in whatever guise) off the table.
