I think that ad is exactly what I said. People who support Trump don’t care he manufactures overseas. He never said he doesn’t, he said he understand why corporations do.
@Jaxk The actual tax rate, what corporations actually pay, is much lower, something like 12 or 14%. I’d have to look up the exact number, my memory fails me. The “rate” means almost nothing. It’s the same with personal taxes, people think everyone pays 50% in taxes, but they don’t. The average middle and upper class person pays about 22% federal taxes, and the super rich pay 17% on all earnings. The 17% is partly because of capital gains tax, but fat other 22% covers the majority of people, because after deductions, and some simple tax write-offs, that’s about where people wind up, even if they are straight salary. They are in a higher bracket or “rate” which is 33% above $250k I think? And, as high as 39% above $400k, more or less, but the rate doesn’t explain the whole story. The tax code is a game of numbers. Sometimes I think the game is necessary, and sometimes I’m disgusted by it.
@Darth_Algar I don’t think @Jaxk was talking about changing wages.
