Here we go with Republican bullcrap

Ryan took a tour of Washington State Boeing Company with a whine about the awful taxes Boeing has to pay saying business is being taxed more than European countries. The teaser is that you the common man will get a tax break by "reforming" the tax structure.
I'll bet few of you know you the taxpayer contributes more to tax funds than business does. In other words you pay more than business in the illustrative pie. You see they are suckering you...you think ya I'll get a tax break with this "tax reformation". You might get a tax break of a few hundred dollars but corp business will get thousands, sometimes millions in tax breaks. Apparently, Republicans think you are too stupid or uninformed to figure that out. Incendentally Boeing pays a "horrible tax percentage of 3.2%" poor babies
I challenge you to start making some research regarding this....and quit being manipulated

It's in the news here every few years in Seattle, just to keep them from leaving the state.
