I'm arguing with a supposed "corporate accountant"...

“A business paying 35% tax rate needs to fire their accountant. YOU DO NOT have a business or you would know that. Stop trying to scare people, turn off Fox News and go read the tax code. I’m a corporate accountant and this sort of BS is repeated by folks like you–who do not have a business, are not an accountant or do not make enough money to actually pay taxes themselves.”

The 35% tax rate he is talking about is in regards to the corporate tax rate.

I don’t know if he’s being honest or not, but it’s no secret large corporations don’t pay a 35% tax rate. The question is do we want business prospering or failing because they have the best accountants and know how to manipulate the tax code, or because they sell superior products at the best prices.
