Yes, exactly. Corporations have a fiduciary responsibility to maximize shareholder wealth, regardless of other impacts, creating the need for regulation.Newsflash. Corporations are not in business to save or make you money. Unless of course you're a shareholder.

Corporate taxation is nothing more than a line item cost of production to a business. That cost is passed along to the consumer in the price of goods and services.
Lowering the corporate tax does two things for the economy which benefit the middle, working, and lower classes:
1. It puts downward pressure on prices, which makes the consumer dollar go further.
2. It makes the expatriation of corporate dollars less advantageous, and keeps those dollars in the domestic economy.
Part of it is passed on to the consumer, sure, based on the elasticity of said good or service
You're missing the big corollary. US companies are making more money overseas, but are parking it offshore because the taxes are too high to bring it back.
And because they can, which should change

Yeah, I'm sure the decreased tax expense will just flow right down to decreased prices- not to shareholder profits...

Unreal. Do all you Trumpettes just regurgitate whatever his hitsquad tells you?
Look for yourself here.
Here is his plan in terms so simple, even a Trumpette can understand it.
Are you afraid of a world with no IRS?
That's a great plan to decrease corporate taxation. Just what the middle class needs...
-
Don't worry, the benefits will trickle down!Cruz tells everyone in his phony snake oil salesman delivery that Trumps Gettin ready to stick it to the people!. Yet his flat tax plan is nothing but a huge giveaway to the rich while screwing the middle and lower income people who end up paying more. Unless you happen to be rich, thats not a good thing. Even if you were rich, itd be kind of crappy to support a regessive tax.

Winner!Da'rick once led the SEC in pages.
-
I see very little downside to signing him to a big contract. What could go wrong?If he does go back, he'll cost them more and the chances of him duplicating his career year are slim to none.
-
he does no such thing at all. Brady may get more production out of Chris, but Chris will do nothing to make Brady better.
Hogan was average and average is what you let go. Now Stephan Charles was a much tougher pill to swallow, but this draft is deep in Stephan Charles type players
Was Charles even active all year?
-
This would be a smart signing by the Patriots. Hogan gets open, gets separation. Can play inside/outside. They saw what he did vs their CBs.
That can't be true because of Scott Chandler or something
-
With Gronk, Edelman, Amendola, and Dion Lewis already there, he will not be a primary target. All of those options are far better than Hogan.
What do you think Edelman and Amendola would have looked like in our Offense?
-
Neither Tyrod or EJ run the quick passing game that a guy like Hogan works well in, imo.
Tyrod and Brady have different strengths.
Exactly
-
Why do people keep insisting that Hogan won't work out in NE because Scott Chandler didn't? What the hell does one have to do with the other? Chandler was clearly at the end of his career. Hogan clearly is not. I think it's pretty predictable that Hogan will work out well in NE.
People are grasping at straws to reinforce their position that he stinks now that the Pats* gave him 4M per
-
They better let him go. He's simply not worth that kind of money.
The front-loaded $5.5M number in Chris Hogan's offer sheet with Patriots is the challenge for Bills. Big number for team tight vs cap.
They have to or they look stupid. They could have retained him for 2.5M
Good thing the Pats* don't know your secret. Nobody tell them...[/quote
Right. I'm glad they are wasting a roster spot on another one of our players. If Chandler was serviceable that offense may have been better suited to beat Denver.
I'm failing to see what Chandler has to do with Hogan
-
We have seen what Hogan is on Sundays, don't be blinded by the impressive workout numbers and try hard attitude. He is just another borderline WR fighting to stay in the league. No need to overpay him, the Patriots and their fans will soon see that for themselves.
Good thing the Pats* don't know your secret. Nobody tell them...
-
Then he'd be in Buffalo at an inflated salary because there is no way the Patriots sign him to an offer sheet where they give up a #2 pick having already forfeited their #1 due to #deflategate sanctions.
They could have put a 2nd round tender on him for 900k more. Bad move
-
Hogan stinks so I won't miss his mediocrity. What I'm mad about is why didn't the Bills gauge the market and see that he was in high demand and put a higher value on him? We could have gotten draft pick compensation but now we get nothing!
I have been telling this board Chris Hogan is good for two years whilst he has been called "a marginal talent" and an "easily replaceable player".....
Seems Belichick thinks he is good too.
What does he know...
-
Did Cruz say abolish the IRS? Yikes
-
before anyone says I "hate" him because I say he's replaceable. ..I don't hate him. He's fine. The only Bill I actually hate is Duke Williams. But anyway 7-11 wasn't good in TC this year. He dropped everything. Sorry for saying it but it's the truth.
Yes, he struggled in camp this year. I was referring to two years ago
-
That's the thing about Hogan, he looks great in training camp, but hasn't had that same production in the regular season. Some players are just "training camp monsters" and I hate to say it, but I feel Hogan falls under that category.
Yeah, we've only seen flashes. I think QB play has been a factor, maybe I'm wrong
-
Could Tyrod have been better this past year...absolutely. But, from what I've seen from Hogan, he's too inconsistent. I hope this move forces the front office to upgrade the WR position.
I think Hogan will be very effective with an accurate QB in the interemiadiate over the middle stuff. I hope Tyrod improves there but he's not there yet.
But I agree, we could improve. I don't want to come across like I think he's amazing but I like his game. I've liked him since watching him in person at training camp, two years ago he had a great camp and really beat out woods.
-
It is a poor comparison, skill set wise. Games are different but Hogan is effective. His routes weren't really taken advantage of by Tyrod+1
I can't believe people are actually comparing Hogan to Amendola? I'm sorry, but that is a very poor comparison.

powowowowowowow
Awesome

Just like he turned Chandler into the next Gronkowski?
That means nothing
